A compressor for pure, transparent and discreet compression that can also deliver classic fat compression, suited to creative mixing and production as well as mastering and post-production.

Beyond the usual controls such as ratio, attack and release, Pure Compressor gives you access to the essential dynamics profile through its Envelope, Time and Detection settings, providing full control even in the most demanding situations. The extended envelope offers attack, hold and release with manual, auto and advanced release modes, and a delay in the signal path allows zero attack times. Eight detection modes, including Feed Backward modes inspired by vintage hardware for a naturally beefy sound, interact with the time and envelope settings, while Dynamic Factor and Dynamic Velocity control the amount and speed of variation of the extracted dynamics information. A three-band equaliser in the side chain enables frequency-sensitive processing.
