All the best in one
Comprexxor features eight selectable ratio curves representing legendary analog compressor designs and others only imagined. Each ratio selection features its own threshold setting starting from the 1:1 mode, which adds warmth without compression, all the way to the MAX setting, which is a dramatic brick-wall limiting curve.No optical illusion
Comprexxor can also be set to work as a traditional opto-compressor, proving why that technology is still so popular today. By simply adjusting the attack and release controls while in the optical mode, you can give new life to any element in the mix.
Inspiring new sounds
Experiment with Comprexxor as a distortion module and you’ll find a whole new realm of sound-shaping at your fingertips. By selecting the first ratio setting and tweaking to taste, or engaging the 4-button effect of the GB mode, you can instantly add grit and character to any track.
Colorful warmth
Comprexxor lets you add color or warm up digitally recorded tracks in sublime ways. The color section offers 2nd order (“tube-like”) or 3rd order (“tape-like”) harmonic distortion with dedicated controls for adding exactly the right amount. The color engine is designed to make coloring and warming up audio easy and effective.
More sonic tools
Comprexxor also offers controls for defining sound before the signal hits the compressor. The advanced sidechain section allows you to focus exactly on the frequencies you want to process via two adjustable filters, offering a powerful and creative way to optimize compression and distortion right from the start.
Thanks to IK’s 25 years of developing advanced modeling technologies, T-RackS Comprexxor manages all this flexible sound-shaping in one easy-to-use plug-in, and comes loaded with a variety of presets to get you quickly mixing and mastering in new and different ways.
