Jon V Audio Fircomp 2 (Updated 2021.05.16) [WiN, MacOSX]

Ultra clean peak compressor/limiter with punchy attack, musical release, and optional lookahead smoothing, for tracks or busses. Zero/low latency and low CPU. Γûá Fast or same-sample attack times that never sound "clicky", even in zero latency mode Γûá Even cleaner than Fircomp 1. Both can be used side-by-side Γûá Innovative digital envelope detection allows for much lower distortion than typical peak compressors, without overshoot or lag Γûá Optional lookahead FIR gain smoothing for an even cleaner sound Γûá Shape-able release stage with musical, highly history-dependent behaviour. Avoids use of multiple compressors in series! Γûá Sidechain hipass filter and external sidechain ability Γûá Easy stereo options with stereo link and balance Γûá Mid / side processing mode Γûá Perceived loudness metering, with easy makeup gain and balance snapping Γûá Switchable vertical or horizontal gain reduction metering, with adjustable range Γûá Quick loading of presets, bucket comparison system Γûá Make it yours, with a resizable GUI, customizable colours and background image! Γûá Low CPU, fully 64-bit DSP code, making full use of SSE instructions. Insert on every track without a second thought! Γûá Zero latency with lookahead off. With lookahead on, compensated latency of 1.5ms Γûá No phase shift or change in frequency response of the audio signal Change log: Released a small update to fircomp 2 today, with some minor improvements, and a new "coupled peak" mode which is a slight variation of the standard mode
