Waves H-Comp Overview

H-Comp (Native) from Waves is a compressor plug-in that models the behavior of transformer, tube, and transistor circuits, and combines them with the repeatability of software. The compressor's release performance is specifically modeled on the corresponding analog behavior, while a wet/dry control allows for parallel compression.

Other features include multiple sync functions, an output limiter, and via an external side-chain, access to the compressor circuitry for additional compression control.

Note:
Requires iLok if one is not already present on the system.
