CompressorBank HD v7

Using the same design approach as our popular FilterBank plug-in, 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 the articulation of the 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.

Compression Curve Modeling: 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 (Bi-directional Intelligent Transient Enhancement) controls. Knee can soften the compression curve creating a smoother response, and/or add pumping/ breathing compression effects. CompressorBank’s unique and unprecedented Knee design allows the user to ‘morph’ between various compressor topologies such as the dbx 165, Neve 2254E/33609, and Teletronix LA2A*. Bite gives the compressor the ability to allow signal transients (rapidly changing signals – i.e. high frequency data) to pass uncompressed, while the overall compression response is unchanged. These
