But I only get buss compression as an option on a few busses. I have X3 studio, which strangely did not have any of the pro-channel compression until about a month ago when it asked me if I wanted to update. I tried to downlad them a while ago but had a problem with the installation. Mettelus - I haven't tried the reaper plugins yet.
DEFT COMPRESSOR SOFTWARE
Of course I am willing to bend this rule if there is a great piece of software that meets my requirements. I've also stopped using cracks and ripped software. I know there are probably a number of top-flight plugins that cost varying amounts of money, but as a general rule of thumb I prefer to spend my money on actual physical hardware rather than software that is usually obsolete far more quickly. I know if might seem like a big ask, but can anyone recommend any (preferably free) VST compressors that have this function? This is a slightly less pressing issue than the simple ability to sidechain, but given that it is these instruments and frequencies that I am mostly looking to use sidechaining on I thought it worth mentioning. These tend to be the sort of instruments where sidechain processing is most useful for the kinds of music I work on. At least not in the same way or that I am aware of.Īlso regarding the Sonitus compressor, when it comes to compression on instruments for bass sounds (ie bass guitars and kick drums/toms), I prefer the way something like the TDR Feedback compressor sounds on the low end - fatter, rounder, warmer, more 3D.
I can't get the option of sidechaining with any of the other compressors I use. The main thing that it has over all the other plugins I use for compression though, is that it can be used as a sidechain compressor.With the Sonitus, I can use sends from other channels as Sidechain inputs into the Compressor to trigger the compression/ducking/pumping - ie with kick/bass sounds. For some tasks, the actual sound of the compressor is not amazing, but I use it so often because it has these functions that the others do not. Basically, it can meet almost any practical compression/limiting application. One can vary the ratio from 1:1 - 30:1 or Infinity:1, the attack time can go down to 0.0 seconds for fast limiting. It's a pretty decent all-purpose compressor.
DEFT COMPRESSOR FREE
While there is a wealth of excellent free plugins out there for, I've so far been unable to find a plugin compressor that has all of the options and functions of the Sonitus compressor, which has a lot of useful features.
I've been using Cakewalk Sonar X3 Studio for a while now and for mixing purposes I have been using a combination of the free plugins that come with it and a whole load of freeware VST stuff (TDR, Molot/VladG, TB, Variety of Sound, Shuttlebug, etc, etc).
