Waveform Compressor
Free compressor with high-res dynamic visualiser and VCA/Optical modes.
See what the compressor is actually doing
Clearly see how the audio is affected by the compressor. The dynamic waveform display shows you the waveform before and after compression, so you can see what's actually happening.
The gain reduction line shows you how much compression you're applying. You can zoom in and out as you want, pause the waveform, and enable/disable beat and bar lines.
Flexible compressor controls for all situations
The compressor itself is highly flexible, with a high range of attack and release times from super fast (20 microsecond attack, 25ms release) to super slow (250ms attack, 5 second release).
This wide range in possible settings means you can use this compressor in any situation without limitations. Plus, with the knee control, you can achieve a wide array of different tones, and the detector high-pass filter allows you to control how the compressor reacts to low end information.
Replicate the classic opto sound at the flick of a switch
Great for vocals, bass, and anywhere else you want simple, adaptive compression.
In Optical mode, the attack time is variable, and the two-stage release adapts to the source material. The "memory effect" means that the compressor also adapts to how much gain reduction happens over time. These combined characteristics give the compressor a highly organic and musical sound, while also reducing the number of settings you have to think about.
Listen to the compression with Delta Solo
The Delta Solo switch allows you to hear only the difference - or "Delta" - in the audio. This means you can hear exactly what the compressor is doing, and what it's taking away.
This will give you clarity on what you're taking away, how much you're affecting transients, and what frequencies you're affecting the most.
