"Novatron is an analog-modeled compressor that borrows so many sonic properties from so many different classing hardware units that, ironically, it could only exist in the world of DSP.
With separate in/out Transformer Saturation, two optional Tone Circuits, and a monstrous compressor with groundbreaking attack and release characteristics, the Novatron produces the same three-dimensional 'solidity' and tone typically reserved for expensive hardware."

Hammer EQ. Gotta love the kush...
Novatron seems to have a lot of vibe and yeah it must be the perfect match with the Hammer.

I've been testing this one for a while. It's an absolute beast of a compressor. It has worked great on every source I've thrown at it. But what's best about it is it's one of those rare pieces of gear that's hard to make sound bad. Dialing in a great sound is incredibly easy. And it really does cover a LOT of ground sonically. It can do clean bus compression, add some character and control to a drum bus, do brutal FET crushing, smooth and big vocals or bass, it's really incredibly impressive.
Definitely worth a demo if you're not anti-iLok.

Lord, take me downtown...I'm just lookin' for some Kush
This is one serious beast of a compressor. It's the transformer of compressors...it morphs into whatever you need it to be (Fet, VCA, Vari-Mu). Been beta testing for months and I've been waiting for this thing to be released onto an unsuspecting world. Dominion is now firmly within Kush Audio's grasp.

Same here.
Can not touch a dongle due to moving between studios...if I forget to take the iLok dongle to a session...
I also work on projects while traveling on the London tube and a dongle would make it impossible (no space while sitting in the cramped train seats). Take note overzealous developers!

Good to hear these reviews, sounds like a one stop compressor and I can sell the majority of the others I have.........being a sad KVR collector of plugins
I do like Kush, they are all just sound bettering plugins, just slapping them on a channel in default mode makes things sound more betterer

Was really hoping this would be soft-iLok compatible like the Omega Transformers
