CompressorBank

CompressorBank gives the user complete control of dynamic compression. Common controls such as Output (make-up gain), Threshold, Compression (Ratio), Attack, and Release are provided. Non-standard Knee and Bite controls allow unique and unprecedented articulation of compression characteristics. Multiple peak detection circuit types provide flexibility only previously achieved by owning different compression units. Side chain support, side chain or in-line pre-filtering, and a static/dynamic EQ section (post compression) round out the signal processing capabilities of an already very capable compressor.

In addition to the standard Threshold and Compression (Ratio) controls, the actual shape and response of the compression curve can be adjusted with the Knee and Bite controls. Knee softens the compression curve, creating a smoother response. Bite gives the compressor the ability to allow signal transients to pass uncompressed, while the overall compression response is unchanged. These controls allow the user to emulate repsonses of their favorite vintage gear.

Using the same technology as our popular FilterBank Plug-In (including analog satuartion modeling), this static/dynamic parametric EQ section can be applied to the compressor output, making possible effects such as signal enhancement, noise reduction, and harmonic distortion.
