• it still remains somewhat of a hidden gem. They modeled their plugin after the third revision of the 436
• which introduced the Threshold and Release Time controls. This compressor was generally less expensive than its contemporaries and engineers would often modify their units in order to better adapt them to the instruments they would be used on. Pop music production from this era wasn’t so cold and sterile and without a doubt
• the 436 was one of the reasons why.  Features Up to 30 dB of thump-free gain reduction  Maintains a uniform level of reproduced sound  Preserves optimum dynamic range  Does not cause overmodulation  Included versions Native Plugin: Runs on your Mac or PC without any additional hardware needed.
