Polyend Synth Engines: ACD - Distortion effect

What is the problem?

ACD has a nice filter and is a simple mono machine, but I like my acid lines a bit spicy with a good dose of distortion

What should this feature achieve?

It would be nice to add a distortion to the acid synth, Similar to how Perc has an EQ and access to the saturation/ distortion. It would give it a lot more distinct character and separate it from the VAP and FAT engines.

Are there any workarounds?

render the sound to sample and apply bit crush or distortion afterwards.

Love it! Thanks for the wish @Aisjam.

Agreed! I’d like distortion on all the synth engines

Makes sense to include the Play+ here as well as it has the same synths. What do you think?

The 4 synths should have access either to the perc waveshaper, or the options found in the master saturation. As is, they sound nice but a bit too clean.

Seems to be seriously lacking some kind of overdrive. Obviously different kinds of distortion/overdrive would be awesome.
