Soundevice Digital Royal Compressor v4.0 [WiN]

Inspired by a model of the classic British device from the Beatles era used on hundreds of records since the sixties Royal Compressor delivers the true vintage analogue sound and feel. Pleasant saturation and sensitive compression are something every track really needs. Royal Compressor Key Features Vari-mu compression The simulation of the vari-mu circuits delivers warmth and pleasant compression to any kind of audio material. It's more than just suitable for vocals, bass, drums on both insert and bus. Just a few knobs Back in the analogue days when every mix had to be achieved manually, it was necessary, to keep as few controls as possible. Royal Compressor honours this philosophy. Those few knobs have a massive impact on your sound and deliver the vintage sound and feel almost instantly. Three circuit types The A/B/C Model knob offers gives you a chance to switch between three models of circuitry with a different value of the fixed attack. Automatic gain control Worry about the volume no more. The AGC keeps the output signal at the same level no matter how much input gain you add to get some serious saturation. Changing colour doesn't change the output volume then. The saturator Unlike the original vintage devices, Royal Compressor also features an adjustable amount of valve saturation. The random saturation algorithm creates the effect the real hardware would have on your tracks. CPU-friendly Although Royal Compressor operates using high internal sample rate, the modern simulation technology allows it to deliver great sound using the minimum CPU power. Second-hand edition for FREE Even partly broken machines can serve well in many studios. Although their functionality can be limited to just one feature, they may give your records something extra. And that is exactly the case of the second-hand version of our Royal Compressor. Hassle-free software protection No iLok, no dongle, or internet access is required for activation. Our software uses license files to activate your software. You can freely use the purchased software on all your computers as long as you are the user. Realistic 3D yet flexible GUI The photorealistic graphic user interface of the plugin gives you the feeling you are touching the real hardware. But it easily adapts to your needs. You can always drag the arrow in the bottom right corner to change its size - make it smaller to save valuable screen space, or enlarge it to make it easier to use. 64-bit audio quality at ANY sampling rate The plugin provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses internal 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate. 192 kHz or even higher. Smart bypass The intelligent way our plugins manage bypassing ensures that you don't get any clicks or harmful noises when automating the parameter. It also compensates for latency, ensuring that the bypass states are perfectly in sync with each other. Intelligent sleep on silence This plugin intelligently detects whether it makes sense to perform processing at all. If not, it temporarily turns on sleep mode. In such a state, it requires virtually no CPU at all to save the computing sources for other processes.
