Enhance EDM With Squasher | New in Cubase 11

[@YMIR]

OTT Killer, Honestly one of the best upwards/downwards comps I've ever used. So cool that its a stock plugin too so it's super CPU efficient. I think Dom does a great job showing its capability but it can be meticulous in it's outcome. really taking the time to understand the fundamentals of upwards compression really takes this plug to a higher level. So many options for reshaping, one of the best cubase stock plugins in my opinion.

[@yaneevt]

less hand squashing, and i won't get so tired by the end of the first minute of the video. so much hard work

[@Jp-jr7xi]

it is the same than OTT -> its great for sure in electro

[@kikerthekiker]

looks much more advanced than ott

[@Jp-jr7xi]

@@kikerthekiker yeah a little more knobs but u understand what i mean

[@Sheyvanrocks]

This is fantastic!

[@DMeletis]

I wanted this!!!

[@surgicalglitch3265]

Really pulls the sound together a bit more.

[@TaureanMixing]

There is one glaring error here in that if that "Up" knob is controlling how much low level content is being raised, it is NOT an expander. It is upward compression. An upward expander will increase the already louder content of a signal.

[@maksklinec]

Yup, for the “OTT” sound it is needed.

[@GRTCLRY]

Thank you for the tutorial! Finally decided to learn this plugin and stop using presets hahah

[@blue_cloud7]

Hi Dom! If possible, please record a full episode of SQUASHER in the future explaining its functions in detail. I have no idea how to use it and so far I only use presets ..

[@TommyNation]

Great plug-in

[@Thadnill]

Hi, cool video! I am new to Cubase, do you have a video tutorial in how to properly set up and customize color theme & interfaces? Would be cool! Because I really like the color theme that you have on this video and would like to have something similar! Thanks and cheers!

[@greeneyes66]

Interesting tool, eager to check it out. But: make no mistake: there is a change in level... you can easily see that the RMS level is about 2dB lower when bypassed (around 3min and 3min30 in the video). Streaming platforms will turn down the track by about that value. For a neutral comparison, you would have to compare the sound with same loudness.

[@Elbrujo_ivan]

Love it

[@scarlettjohnson3625]

I like this music 👍

Squasher is a MV2 from Waves but better

[@johnmurphy5739]

looks like it can also be used as a multi-band gate though right? Handy for those of us trying to minimize high end hi hat bleed in snare tracks maybe?

[@SteveAthletics]

Everybody wants to know: Is it better then OTT?

[@SteveAthletics]

@@mitchiemasha is VMC a multiband UPWARDS/downwards compressor?

[@jorgedejesustejedavaldez5283]

Can do the same. And have more variety and power.

[@kaustubhdhavale]

Any possibility of a separate clip launch mode like in Abelton live so I don't have switch daws for live performances ? Is that asking for too much ?

[@ashkanaref4056]

did you mean upward and downward compression?

[@MrGSNL]

Woowowowoow

[@DGlorisBE]

I wonder with the Squasher if you put this before the softclipper en maximizer in mastering or do you drop maximizer and or softclipper? since I have impression this is fighting eachother no?

[@maksklinec]

It all depends on the context, but it shouldn’t clash with each other, this is just a form of compression, just like a maximiser is

[@nuriavega2970]

💚💛💜💙❤

[@LucaCalcaterra]

Wow.. but all this kill dynamics , right ?

[@SoundPeaks]

I didn't get what this plugin do. Reminds me Pensado with his 3% to 5% rotary change but you don't hear any difference at all. You will always recognize OTT, I doubt it's an OTT analog.

[@j.v.1493]

Me neither. Watching it the third time.

[@AlexNiedt]

Are you listening in a quiet environment with good monitors or headphones? I'm hearing a really big difference between the plug-in being active and bypassed.

[@maksklinec]

I can hear a clear difference even on my phone speakers

[@awsgaming7578]

You are destroying the groove of the track with the squasher . Without it sound much better .
