I know most people are looking for Hi-Fi & as little coloration as possible, But I am curious about its effects.
I don't think it will be that bad since usually when we are having lots of distortion something in the audio chain isn't working properly. But here everything is fine & we are adding it ourselves as part of the music

Is there a filter to try this out? Something that allows us to choose which frequencies, which order of Harmonics & how much we add. preferably on linux :)

Well...there are ways to use VSTs on linux like LinVST and Carla. Not sure if anyone has done it with PKHarmonic but it might be worth a try.
