Been using it for a couple of days, really like it, it's nice to have that many options out of one plugin. Thanks Mike, always enjoy your videos.

[@HardyNahtal]

Thanks fo the video! You have helped me become a professional with my mixes

[@mofateam1]

Thank you for that great tutorial !

[@robbiemichaels2347]

In someways like the Sonible smart comp 2 with the layout. Excellent review and it’s an amazing compressor.

[@lewisknudsen1]

Thanks Mike!

[@FromTheHipp]

i saw this review coming. i like the idea of this comp as a 1 stop shop for all comps. so many diff flavors.

[@mixingwithmike]

Cheers!

[@ramspencer5492]

true....Yet kind of reinventing the wheel. so versatile.... But have to figure out how to use it on every source....

[@trevorellis-guice5794]

This takes the cake as the best utility compressor for me. I’ll still go to the La-2a 1176 and Fairchild for more color, but this gets you modern and controlled better than any other compressor imo.

[@jemarmitchell5555]

Blessings mike

[@mixingwithmike]

Cheers!

[@petercastle4381]

Please can you review the Three body tech Kirchhoff EQ

[@motebike]

Let me know when you find the plugin of the decade....

[@edwardkenemorales]

Can anyone please tell me about the cpu hit?

[@gh0stransist0r]

low, only 2% here on my system with OS 2X.

[@audiosounddoctor5834]

Does this comp give saturation or not?

[@PlottingTheDownfall]

Yes and no. Compression by nature adds odd harmonics. With no compression there are no harmonics except on the MU type. The even/odd knob adds even harmonics to soften the sound. Like Pro-C 2 this is a "clean" compressor, how clean depends on the compressor's envelopes used with its attack and release

[@RealHomeRecording]

Cheers!

[@JK_EU]

Correction. The vintage emulations DO change saturation behavior. I can't tell if they are exact replicas on the original hardware, but each emulation has a different saturation.

[@PlottingTheDownfall]

only because of the compressor type's attack and release envelope. They do not model the circutry. With no compression applied, no saturation, unlike say DMG TrackComp 2 which with no compression still has modeled hardware saturation.

[@JoeyFTL]

​@@PlottingTheDownfallI'm not sure about that, the profile of the harmonics seem to show that there's more going on beyond that

[@JK_EU]

@@PlottingTheDownfall 😁In what universe is what you said true? Do you know what you just wrote? Did you even analyze the plugin's behavior or are you just throwing your opinions out random? All rehetorical questions.

[@matt_nyc_audioengineer]

Just be aware, there is a bug with the OS, at least on my system. I did report it and they were able to recreate it so I'm sure a fix is on the way! On my end the higher the OS the more low end gets cut from the mix (on the mixbus). Shame too because the OS sounds great otherwise. Great compressor tho 🙂

[@PlottingTheDownfall]

Same experience here

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

there are many bugs, I can't even use it in Ableton (win10).

[@matt_nyc_audioengineer]

@@HumanBeingWithFeelings​ Sorry to hear that! That's what happens when your "beta team" is made up of people who pay to be there and don't have the proper experience to be testing products you are selling on the open market. You end up getting a group of people who just want early access. They don't care about the testing and usually have no business being testers in the first place. I beta test for several large deveoplers so I know the process that goes into testing plugins. This kind of stuff would have NEVER made it to release with any of the companies I work for. I literally found this bug in less than 5 minutes. As soon as I saw they were allowing people to pay to be beta testers I knew things were going to go downhill, fast lol.

[@matt_nyc_audioengineer]

@@PlottingTheDownfall I would encourage you to report it if you haven't.

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

@@matt_nyc_audioengineer I'm just so shocked that it doesn't even work for me. I mean it's not that I'm using windows XP or smth. I'm using win10 and the last version of Live.

[@Bluelagoonstudios]

PA goes Fabfilter plugins? First the Kirchoff now this one?

[@johnisrael5183]

They needed a good bus comp...hate to say it but this blows townhome, purple and bxopto away...LOL

[@Bluelagoonstudios]

@@johnisrael5183 did you try the Bettermaker? Also a great bus compressor. I mixed last week a cover of The Cure, Friday On My Mind, I was impressed.

[@bakharandi]

Funny how iPhone users go Crazy every time a new Samsung Galazy comes out . . . !?@y@?! . . . ! . . . :-) (-;

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

it doesn't work in Ableton. Waiting for an update that fixes it.

[@djvoid1]

Works for me

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

@@djvoid1 may I ask what Ableton version you are using?

[@djvoid1]

@@HumanBeingWithFeelings Current version of 11

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

@@djvoid1 which OS?

[@HumanBeingWithFeelings]

@@djvoid1 ok thanks. I'm using 11. I've heard people having issues using both versions.. glad it works for you,cheers!

[@someoneacomputer1905]

it's not doing negative ratios, which is a shame :).

[@Nothing-sn9nc]

That was a little bit of a disappointment for me too, but the PA bundle also comes with the elysia mpressor which does it.

[@ramspencer5492]

ridiculously versatile! yikes...wow!

[@moustaphadiaw7101]

PLEASE COMPARE TO PRO C2, NO ONE HAS DONE A PROPER SHOOTOUT

[@joost3783]

too many knobs for me. Personally if I want the characteristics of a 2500, I want all the characteristics not just the timing. I feel like TDR nailed the clean compressor with a simpler GUI

[@donnas8408]

Meh meh

[@urbanman1516]

Your comment makes no sense. On what basis do you say that? Not enough features?! Not versatile enough?! Makes me think your comment is more of a justification to yourself to not have to spend money.

[@JS_97]

Meh…
