V51: Distortion effect

Retained analysis

Six distinct distortion types have separate plotted responses: Soft/Hard Clip, Linear/Sine Fold, Bit Crush and Down Sample. The internal filter can be None, Pre or Post with cutoff/resonance/blend. Pre filtering changes what excites the nonlinearity; post filtering shapes its output. Drive and mix must be retained with upstream level, not treated as a final loudness adjustment.

Documentation and visible configuration; not a new native audio test. Project observations are distinct from the source author's claims.
