Specifications

CompressorBank from McDSP is a compressor plug-in for Digidesign's Pro Tools systems that has been designed to emulate the sounds of vintage and modern analog compressors. Unlike their hardware competitors, DAW (Digital Audio Workstations) generally have an open architecture that allows gifted individuals to develop high-end plug-ins that contribute to the overall success of the parent system. While it's true that it is possible to insert a vintage hardware compressor into an analog board, patching 24 or more of them would require the financial resources of kings - and then that still doesn't address the issue of total recall.

CompressorBank gives the user complete control of dynamic compression. Common controls such as output (make-up gain), threshold, compression (ratio), attack, and release are provided. Non-standard Knee and Bite controls allow unique articulation of compression characteristics. Multiple peak detection circuit types provide flexibility only previously achieved by owning different compression units while side chain support, side chain or in-line pre-filtering, and a static/dynamic EQ section (post compression) round out the signal processing capabilities of an already very capable compressor.

: • McDSP engineering has developed emulations of the Teletronix LA2A, the dbx 165, the Neve 2254E/33609, the UREI 1176LN (blackface, including the '44' setting,) the Fairchild 670 and other classic high-end compressors and limiters

: • In addition to the standard Threshold and Compression (Ratio) controls, the actual shape and response of the compression curve can be adjusted with the Knee and Bite controls. Knee softens the compression curve, creating a smoother response. Bite gives the compressor the ability to allow signal transients to pass uncompressed, while the overall compression response is unchanged

: • Using the same technology as the FilterBank plug-in (including analog satuartion modeling), an included static/dynamic parametric EQ section can be applied to the compressor output, making possible effects such as signal enhancement, noise reduction, and harmonic distortion.

: • Double precision arithmetic for 48-bit processing at side chain pre-filter, compression and active EQ stages

: • ProControl and HUI compliant

: • Requires iLok for authorization
