With eight selectable curves, selectable 2nd or 3rd order harmonic saturation, high-pass/band-pass filters on the sidechain path and much more, Comprexxor delivers endless sonic flexibility, whether that's emulating classic sounds of the past or inspiring new ones for tomorrow.Ĭomprexxor features eight selectable ratio curves representing legendary analog compressor designs and others only imagined.

– IK Multimedia releases T-RackS Comprexxor, based on one of the most flexible and creative analog compressors ever made. I might use it here and there, but I wouldn't have bought it for any >0 price, simply because I have little use for it in my professional work.The new Swiss Army knife of compressor plug-ins Has a bunch of great sounds to it for all kinds of stuff. It didn't justify its price for me, as I have compressors for days. I use compressors on dialogue most of the time, so that was my test case. I tested Arouser but didn't get it because it was just 'a little smoother on its opto mode than Renaissance Compressor'. At least that's what I've experienced so far. Dist 2 is a lot warmer and starts clipping at lower volumes while dist 3 is a bit harsher but starts clipping at higher levels. Something to note about the distortion modes is that dist 2 (yellow) is the mode you'd want when just saturating and beefing stuff up, while dist 3 (red) is the mode you'd want when you need to round-off transients. I have Arousor as well and while it's better as an allround compressor, Comprexxor is better at smashing drum tracks, distorting vocals and fast attack stuff.

Downloaded the demo when it first came out and it's really good for dirty stuff!
