The sound of the legendary SSL Stereo Bus Compressor. The centre section compressor from SSL’s 1980’s G Series analogue console is an audio production legend. It is the secret behind countless classic recordings. It is a simple unit with a simple purpose; it makes complete mixes sound bigger, with more power, punch and drive. FabFilter Pro-C 2. Rating: 5 out of 5. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.5 out of 5. Who this plugin is. Solid State Logic’s 4000 series mixing console played a significant role in defining the sound of ‘80s pop and rock, and while there are a few plugin emulations of its all-important bus compressor available today, our favourite is that of Brit developer Cytomic - mostly for its vibe and sound, but partly because of its comparative. DCAM FreeComp is a bread and butter type of compressor VST plugin. It features a circuit-modeled design based on a model of a vintage console bus compressor, but the plugin doesn’t color the sound too much. DCAM FreeComp can work equally well on individual tracks and stereo buses.

Overview

Built in 1978 by the legendary Townhouse studio engineers, this unique compressor was created using console components supplied by Solid State Logic (SSL). The only hardware unit ever made was now perfectly recreated by Brainworx.

  • Every DAW comes bundled with at least one compressor plug-in which generally do the job of dynamics processing well. In some cases stock compressors can be a bit bland sounding as they typically don’t behave like the analogue compressors of old which many audio engineers revere.
  • This plugin is perfect for those producers looking to add the finishing touches to their latest masterpiece. Modelled on legendary buss compressors from classic analogue consoles the Minimal System Group Stereo Buss Compressor could be just what you need. Analogue Buss Compressors are the secret behind many classic releases.
  • One year ago I’ve purchased a Universal Audio effect accelerator to work with some.

/keyscape-vst-plugin-free.html. The bx_townhouse Buss Compressor is the ultimate companion for your mix buss, offering just a touch more vibe and mojo than a standard British console buss compressor.

The original unit was built in a time when there simply wasn't an external console buss compressor available for sale, and was used heavily during the 80s and beyond by some of the biggest names in rock, including Queen, Sting, Muse, and many more.

  • Go to comp for overheads and drumbusses

    My go-to comp plugin for not only drums, but pretty much everything. It is super fast and squashing something with it does not sound bad at all. I love the way it performs on a drumbus and on… Read More
