• especially when applied to raw studio recordings. Unlock an enhanced hardware emulation with added features The hardware version of the Bettermaker Bus Compressor uses an entirely analog signal path with settings that are saved and recalled digitally; this has led to the unit’s widespread popularity amongst professional mixing and mastering engineers. While the Bettermaker Bus Compressor plugin sounds very similar to the hardware
• it’s slightly more forgiving and surgical
• allowing you to de-ess vocals and hi-hats. Furthermore
• the VCA Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) knob generates additional harmonic content
• subtly saturating your music. Filter and boost the sidechain signal to avoid pumping effects When processing bass-heavy sounds
• many compressors often respond too aggressively to low-end transients. As a result
• you may end up with undesirable pumping effects. The Bettermaker Bus Compressor includes a sidechain high-pass filter and midrange boost option. Use these features to target the punch of kick drums and the sibilance in vocals. Choose between responsive or compression The Bettermaker Bus Compressor plugin features both Peak and RMS detection modes
• making it an incredibly versatile compressor. Peak mode is intended for tight dynamics control and is perfect for taming aggressive drum transients. RMS mode provides compression
• ideal for sustained sounds like pads
• basses
• and vocal textures. Features Threshold
