When asked what he uses to make his synths sound so big, Fedde Le Grand talks about using distortion plugins, particularly the CamelPhat: http://youtu.be/9yRiHVBv2jo?t=22s
After being asked: "Is all of your processing/production work done inside Ableton Live?", he answered "There are a few third-party gizmos that I couldn't live without. The PSP Vintage Warmer is on everything; the SoundToys stuff goes well beyond anything you'd expect from a delay unit - it almost has a voice of its own; and CamelPhat is a versatile combined filter and overdrive - a very creative tool."
"You get quite alot of like artifacts n stuff in the distortion, so it's going through CamelPhat which is pretty hard to get now that they've gone bust."
"CamelPhat is like a go-to, I put it on pretty much everything that has to do with bass."
