Top 10 Compressor Plugins — Sage Audio.

 

Downward expansion works as a counterpart to compression. Whereas a compressor compresses the dynamic range of higher volume levels, the downward expander expands the dynamic range of the lower volume levels. With downward expansion, the signal is reduced in level when it falls below the threshold level. Check out these awesome plugins and listen to what a proper compressor can do for you. The eight modes of the compressor allow the Pro C2 to add some coloration to your mixes.

Version 2 adds five new modes: Vocal, Mastering, Bus, Punch, and Pumping to give you access to tailored responses to match what you are working on. Mastering engineers will appreciate the new metering.

Combine this with the 4x oversampling and GPU acceleration and you have one accurate plugin. All of this functionality and versatility make this compressor a great choice for any engineer looking for a lot of features in one package. Check out the FabFilter Pro C2 for access to a large toolset within one beautiful plugin.

There are several reasons engineers have opted to use a stereo compressor on their master bus. Check out our article on Mix Bus Compression for more information. To build on its accuracy to the original, Waves added modeled analog hum from the SSL G for even more coloration abilities. This plugin is typically used for master bus compression, but also shines when your goal is to tighten up drums or piano.

Among all hardware compressors, there are a couple that stand out as studio legends. One of those legends is the Teletronix LA-2A. The LA-2A is an optical compressor with a tube output stage. Featuring slower attack and release times, and vibe to spare, the LA-2A has become known for its warmth and character that can be heard on countless records.

As an optical compressor, most of the common uses of 2As include instruments with fewer transients and vocals. Bass and vocals have been commonly treated with this style of compression, both for its smoother gain reduction and in the case of the LA-2A, for the warmth of the tube output stage.

The plugin offers three variations of the compressor. The LA2 has the slowest attack and release like many s compressors, while the gray and silver models have medium-fast attack and release for a more typical response similar to the vintage LA-2As that have earned their legendary status.

Output gain and peak reduction controls are available as well as the ability to change metering and switch between limiting and compressing. Having three modes of operation and precise emulation of analog equipment, the VintageWarmer2 is a great compressor for mixing and mastering with tons of analog saturation available.

The first mode, called MicroWarmer aims features speed, release, drive, low, high, knee, and output controls. With the addition of the shelving EQ section, this mode can be used for tone shaping while offering a scaled-back, CPU-friendly compressor. The second mode is a direct successor to the original VintageWarmer. It aims to keep low latency while adding brick wall limiting, multi-band compression, frequency selection for the EQ shelves, and more release settings.

This mode allows the plugin to double sample incoming audio for more an improved analog sound. The plugin has become known for its characteristics when overloaded. PSP aimed to make the VintageWarmer2 exhibit tape like qualities when pushed to overloading.

Because of this, the plugin is very useful for coloration, saturation, and of course, compression. For a good emulation of analog processing that can be added effectively to a mix or master, check out the VintageWarmer2. Not only is there an entirely free version, but there is also a lot of flexibility available here to tailor your compression characteristics to taste.

The controls allow for threshold, peak crest, soft knee, ratio, attack, and two release times. Most of the controls function just as they would on other compressors. The Peak Crest knob can be viewed as a blend control for what the plugin is reacting to.

It was a good idea of theirs to have the differing circuits. Each one does act and sound like a different compressor. On the last song I mixed for a band they loved the compression on the drums.

Thing is, there was no compression on the drums. I didn't tell them!! Mar 21, AM in response to kerochan In response to kerochan.

Since you have UAD hardware you should definitely look at the Compressors that were included with the hardware you purchased. I purchased the UAD Fairchild compressor pack, possibly the best compressor I've heard as final compression on a completed mix. Mar 21, AM. I like the Teletronix LA-2A. You use this and the UAD series for their character, as you will note, they barely have any controls.

Bring up the Peak Reduction so that the needle bounces no more than -4 on the VU meter. Mar 21, PM in response to kerochan In response to kerochan.

That said I think Logic's "compressor" is about the best native compressor out there, and that's after comparing it to some of the best. Mar 21, PM. Thanks Pancenter, many people say this, I am gonna stick with the Logic one and try to learn it properly! Question: Q: which Logic compressor? More Less. Community Get Support.
