saturator
Device for drenching
A saturator is a device or system that saturates—that fills something to capacity or infuses it completely.
In industrial contexts, saturators add moisture, gas, or chemical solutions to materials until they can absorb no more: The humidifier's saturator kept the greenhouse at optimal humidity.
In audio production, a saturator is an effect that adds harmonic distortion to simulate the warmth of analog equipment.
