Marquis Compressor's T3 mode IS a 'twin VCA' compressor design as well.

If it doesn't have a GUI modelled on a G-Series channel strip, it ain't worth diddly!

championrabbit, yeah, that's right. It should bear the 'Waves' trademark as well to make it through.

Actually, I was just interested in drawing a comparison when this Waves/SSL plug-in gets released. T3 is not a center mode for Marquis Compressor, but the comparison can be interesting (which may include all sonic-shaping features of Marquis as well, not just T3 mode).

Have you considered changing your company name to Wavves or Waaves? Could work...

Or maybe Nneve.

I'm not usually big on emulations, but I can't help buy be interested in this. I'll maybe try your compressor too depending on whether the SSL emulation is usable in Cubase...

I think they will be DirectX.

these will for sure suck.
Slap a nice gui on a shitty plug and people will go nuts.

Pretty retarded to judge it before hearing it...

Aleksey, the only problem with Marquis, doing the SSL emulation, is the extra "character" that marquis has. You know, that thing it does to the low frequencies and all. IMHO the SSL bus compressor that I fooled around with in a studio (on a mixed series E and G desk) was very transparent and only did the compression itself without imparting any special "tone" to the audio. It's AFAIK a very simple compressor design that can be built DIY style for less than 500$.

Could you maybe provide a way to turn off all that sonic enhancement in Marquis and just use the compression stage? That would rock.

Cheers!

Waves suck, and so does SSL.

it's scientifically proven.

No way, Jose!

Waves Trueverb 'guitar room' is the finest of all tiny-room reverbs!

I have a folder-full of evidence to support this claim, and my best friend (who is a Pro record producer of Pro bands in a Pro studio and probably recorded Bon Jovi and Jefferson Starship Troopers or something) said that in Pro studios they don't use real rooms at all, only Waves plugins.

That goes for compressors too apparently.

Anyway, YOU ARE WRONG!

bah.

If someone is calling Bon Jovi "pro" he should be eating old underware...humbug.

waves isn't anything but a big hoax.

Haha... Pro studios only use WAVES!!??? LOL!!!

Man... I guess I'm not a pro and have never worked at a pro studio... heheh...

PRO - Engineers, use the room and everything or anything to get the sound they are after, that is the real fact.
