Description

‘+10db Compressor is meticulously modeled after one of the industries most iconic hardware compressors. Unless you refuse to listen to any music after Beethoven you most certainly have heard this unit in action. Best yet this is the first time this hardware unit has been available in plugin format. +10db Compressor is the first of its kind channel strip plugin. This plugin is modelled after a very highly sought after compressor hardware unit. We didnt just use the hardware unit for inspiration we dug in deep and made sure that it sounded just like the original.

Why did we model this unit?

Heres the deal. It seems like everybody is modelling hardware these days but we wanted to do something a little different. We didnt want to model any hardware units that have been done a million times. We wanted to do something that had never been done before but has been an icon in the recording industry and the only way to do that was to team up with producer/mixer David Bendeth. He just happened to have a few of these in his rack so he sent us one to pour over. Unless you stopped listening to music after Johnny B Goode then you have most definitely heard this hardware unit many many times. Think of Led Zeppelin drums. In order to get this same compressor in hardware not only would you have to pay over $2000 to get one but youd have to deal with all the other drawbacks of using analog hardware. For a very small fraction of the price you can get that same sound in the much more convenient software format. There are really no downsides (unless you live in Alaska an need a room heater)

A few extra features

Since we werent bound by the limits of the analog hardware we took the liberty of adding a couple features that make this even more powerful than the original hardware. For one we added a Dry Passthrough knob that makes parallel compression super easy without having to set up extra buses.

Features:

• Super punchy attack
• killer drum compressor
