Looking for this sale - then noticed the date of the post.

Do not understand. Slate now has a "stress" plug and there doesn't seem to be a dedicated thread.


Thoughts?

Before anyone rushes to Stress...(and its interesting the market difference on KVR and Gearslutz)...but Voxengo Marquis seems like it can get very close to a distressor...and its an excellent compressor in its own right...

Why not post the samples here?

Thanks for making the effort, looking forward to a blind test.

There is one on KVR somewhere but KVR doesn't like ilok protected plugins.

I started a thread. Not sure if it's iLok or people just don't like their subscription model, but whatever the case, to each his own.

I have know idea which is which but I'll leave my impressions;

Drums A 4.1: is more natural sounding compression
Drums B 4.1: is centred and forward in comparison

Drums A Nuked: again natural for nuked
Drums B Nuked: most forward again

They are very close and hard to judge which one is better. On drums in solo I'd choose A for the natural hidden compression. In a mix I might choose B for its upfront presence.

I hope A is Marquis but considering the time put into r&d, naming rights blah blah... Slate has invested in Stress it might be the HW'esque compression everyone loves.

I just saw that you put the results on Gearslutz already. OMG

Marquis was A and FG-Stress was B...

Very interested in the settings you used to make Marquis sound like FG-Stress.

It was a painful communication strategy (annuncements, delays, etc.), but the FG-Stress sounds fantastic.
If you're not on the Slate train yet, keep an eye on ANR, in the next days we'll announce a cool Slate-related giveaway...

New Sknote Disto has been released.
If you bought it previously the update is in your download area, I just checked and installed it.

Curiously the file size is considerably smaller.

Thanks Vari, will try it in the morning. How does she sound?

I'm no Golden ears and I only use compressors as an effect for obvious changes to the sound, so I can only comment on its ability when jacked up to bring out sound you wouldn't hear without it.

Stick it on a sampled drum loop and you'll see what mean

FG-Stress is just magical
