Subtle tube saturation

saturation is clarity

Adds harmonics that make a signal easier to read — more presence, more focus, less EQ.

saturation is harmonics

Adding weight, presence, and definition
without turning harsh.

saturation is warmth

Rounder transients, richer mids, and a fuller feel without mud.

saturation is loudness

More perceived level and punch without pushing the fader.

What our customers say

David Castillo

Producer – Mixer – Engineer

I fell in love with the unit and plugins right away. It does everything from being a smooth transient shaper to a tasteful colored saturation. I find new use for it in every session, it’s been on drums, bass, acoustic guitars and keys so far.

Holy-grail mixbus Saturation. With the Plugin it's just constantly smooth & consistently rich no matter how hard you push it. Perfect for those track enhancement or creatively smooth distortion situations!!!

Ralf Scheepers

Primal Fear – Vocalist & Songwriter

With the saturation plugin LYRA:mb from klanghabitat I am able to enhance warm saturation to my vocal sound within 4 separated frequency bands. It literally works for every instrument or sound source in your mix.

Junior Rivero

DJ – Music Producer – Mix & Mastering

Great Plugin! It's nice on the transients, still remains pleasant the harder I push it as long as it's dialed in a sweet spot, it gets what i call PERKY.

Henrik Udd

Music Producer – Mix & Mastering

Cassiopeia really pushes things forward in the mix in a subtle but effective way.

Powerwolf, Hammerfall, Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, Firewind and many more

Filippo Perbellini

Singer – Producer – Songwriter – Keyboard

Great Machine, love the Hardware so much! A very defined character, you can use it the very gentle way!

Matten Zwei

Producer & Songwriter

The fastest shortcut to rich and lush drum-compression. It tames your frequencies if you want it to and if you unleashed it, they will roar. Easy to use, punchy to hear.

Designed with intention.

Built from real tube circuits and long-term hardware exploration, klanghabitat tools are designed to hold up beyond trends.

They favor musical decisions over technical spectacle, offering consistency, depth and tone that integrate naturally into modern workflows.

Used with purpose.

Klanghabitat tools are used by producers, mixing engineers and artists who shape sound as part of the music, not as an afterthought. From subtle harmonic enrichment to controlled density and glue, klanghabitat tools are used where tone matters more than numbers.
