Very nice compressor, IIRs. Many times I've tried unsuccessfully to tweak my other compressors to do the same thing. L3V3LL3R does it right out of the box. Works real well with synths for me. Tried it on vocals.....nice, but I had to gate a big noise floor. You must have some upward compression in there like with IQ4gui. Upward compression.....Good!

Thanks.

Good sounding unit. Like second mode. With fast to moderate attack and carefully chosen release sounds good on drums.

Actually no, its just traditional downwards compression. The Comp knob adds static make-up gain as well as lowering the threshold, so this must be what raised your noise floor.

Mode I:

Mode II:

OK...that's interesting. Thanks for the explanation. By the way, I added the G8 Gate and everything is balanced off perfectly. I really couldn't suggest any improvements. Again, nice compressor.

You may perhaps be interested to learn that I ported L3V3LL3R to REAKTOR format. Now availabe from the User Library:

Thanks! I voted 10. It sounds great, fun to use, and the core programming looks apt.

Did you find porting SynthMaker code into reaktor a chore or was it straight forward?

Do you have any plans to port any of your other ones? I think the VelocityCurve plug would make a really unique admission to the user library.

Porting the code was quite easy. Actually doing the graphics was trickier: I had to tweak a couple of graphics elements that I otherwise couldn't position correctly.

Now you could maybe port it to Linux, mmmm ?

Updated to version 1.1

L3V3LL3R 1.1 (NI User Library)

It turns out I was wrong about the 64 bit internal resolution: apparently you have to manually switch every single module to 64 bit, not just the top level macro.

Version 1.1 really does now have 64 bit internal resolution.

(I compared the output with 1.0 and there are differences: they're about 80dB down, so probably not audible, but grab the update anyway just in case!)

L3V3LL3R - colourful compressor - now also available for REAKTOR
