Flexible Signal Flow & Side-Chain Options

Multiple Compression Modes
Choose between three compressor types, each tailored for different sonic needs

Normal
A versatile compressor suited for general-purpose use. It’s great for smoothing out transients and controlling the overall dynamics of complex musical material. This mode is forgiving, masking compression artefacts to maintain a natural and balanced sound.
-
Classic
Influenced by vintage VCA compressors like the DBX 160, this setting delivers reliable, consistent control with an analogue character - Perfect for adding richness and punch to your tracks.
-
Linear
Provides precise control over attack and release times, making it ideal for creating dynamic audio effects. Great for sound design or when you want to hear the compressor really shape the character of your sound.
