Description

  

The Instruō 

tanh[3]

 is a three channel waveshaper, limiter, overdrive, 

and feedback controller.

Each channel of the 

tanh[3]

 takes a signal input and outputs the 

hyperbolic tangent function (tanh (x)) for that input signal.

... In more musical terms, tangential distortion is a form of soft 
clipping which can produce signal amplitude limiting via analogue 
waveshaping. Driving a hot audio signal into it will add warm overdrive.
Raw waveforms will be subtly shaped; softening or adding harmonic 
content based on input amplitude.
 
Understanding what the 

tanh[3]

 does to a signal, both mathematically 

and sonically can be hard to explain, but it essentially adds curves  
to signals.

For many Max/MSP and/or PD users, the [tanh~] object may be 
familiar and is likely a much used secret weapon in many contexts.
