Arturia 3 Compressors You'll Actually Use - Analog-Modeled Software for Dynamic Processing in Mixing (Download)

Available for download, Arturia's 3 Compressors You'll Actually Use Bundle packages together three emulations of famous compressors employed in mixing. Included are an 1176-style FET compressor, a 165A-style VCA compressor, and a tube-style compressor modeled on the Gates STA-Level.

Use the 1176 emulation on any source you'd want to put through an FET powered, Class-A compressor, including vocals, drums, and guitars. It wouldn't be an 1176 compressor without the ability to use the all-buttons-in trick, so Arturia has modeled that setting as well.

The VCA-65 emulates a classic DBX 165A and is well suited to preserving the microdynamics of drums while reining in overall dynamics. You can make this compressor quite punchy while preserving the integrity of initial transients.

With the TUBE-STA compressor, you can make use of nonlinear attack and release to avoid pumping, all while imparting a harmonically rich tone to sound sources thanks to the tube modeling. Use this compressor on basses, guitars, and vocals, for a smooth, yet solid timbre.

All compressors employ Arturia's TAE technology, which painstakingly models the original units for an authentic sound and feel, all while keeping the CPU low enough to use these plug-ins on multiple tracks. You can use these compressors with Mac and Windows platforms, using VST, AU, or AAX formats.
