Featuring up to 8x upsampling and no odd harmonic distortion, the SONORIS Mastering Compressor plug-in delivers clean, transparent, and precise control of dynamics, plus flexible character that can be warm or aggressive when the music calls for it. Created for demanding mastering applications that require finesse and subtle yet effective sonic manipulation, this digital processor provides the ability to work in stereo, split (mono), or mid-side modes along with highly tunable parameters, feedback and feedforward detector types, and two independent knee controls.

The sidechain, equipped with three types of filters to allow tonal sculpting of the trigger signal, offers variable linking from fully linked to fully split. Dial in the attack and release times manually, or set them to automatically adjust according to the audio content. Built-in parallel compression, switchable even-order-harmonic distortion, and a scalable user interface make the SONORIS Mastering Compressor even more fitting for today's workflows.

Transparency
No odd harmonic distortion that can be found in most compressors is present in the SONORIS Mastering Compressor. To reduce residual artifacts, it features upsampling of the audio up to eight times. Transparency can be further enhanced by selecting auto-release and feedback detection together with two soft knees.

Character
If a more aggressive behavior is needed, you can choose feedforward detection with a harder knee. It can have some character if pushed. If needed, the audio can be warmed up by even harmonics with the flip of a switch.
Focus
Besides working on a full mix, the plug-in can also work in split mode on the individual left, right, mid, or side channels, or anything in between with the variable link.
Flexibility
The sidechain for each channel has a selectable high-pass, band-pass, low-pass filter. This gives great flexibility and allows for creative enhancement of the audio.
Precisely Adjustable Parameters
  • Ratio ranging from 1:1 to infinity for compression and limiting
  • Attack ranging from 0 ms to 1 sec, plus selectable auto attack
  • Release ranging from 1 ms to 5 sec, plus selectable auto-release ranging form 0.5 to 5 sec (program dependent)
  • Threshold control from -60 to 0 dBFS
  • Make-up gain from -18 to +18 dB
  • Flexible knee setting from hard to soft in 100 steps
  • Second knee enables the compressor to adjust the ratio back to 1:1 above the threshold, also adjustable in 100 steps from hard to soft knee
  • Feedback and feedforward detector types
  • Sidechain linking is adjustable from fully linked to fully split
