it's dance/pop

you get the drift

hmmm, well, without hearing what you're doing I would suggest COMPassion {this thread is in serious danger of recommending every compressor on the market, hehe!} because it's a "cover all basses" type of compressor. it's a finely tunable plugin as you probably know, for dance/pop the existing presets should be fine enough I'd imagine ?

EDIT2: Another option is to get the SSL bus compressor from.. yeah, you guessed it, from SSL. I have a NFR license for it but haven't used it that much though. Mainly due to the PITA copy protection. Yet another dongle, same system as Reason is using. The WIBU key. You can also run it without the dongle but that means you need to be connected to the net at all times. It sounds nice though. Not sure about their resale / transfer policy though.

hey bmanic, no you don t need to be connected, it s just for installing ,ssl protection is well done and work without hassle

i m not sure you re really after ssl sound, the glue i m not sure is the real ssl sound, when i demoed it, i was not convinced how it grab, it was smoother to me, so i think you re after the glue sound..and to replace it won t be easy..

i would look into something else, what about elysia alpha plugins?

yes the channel strip have good filters and the interface is easy to use.

about the compressor maybe you should wait for the vbc

there is also sonoris compressor but i don't remember the features.

My first choice, duende native ssl bus compressor. From someone who worked with the hardware and x rack in the studio, my favorite.
Waves is a second.
Never miss the sidechain filter, the duende one is so much like the hardware and can cope pretty good with bass, it won't hop around crazy, but grooves and glues.

Otherwise i'd say give the NI one a shot.

Kind regards,

The NI buscompressor doesn't have a built in Sidechain filter though. It does however accept an external sidechain so you can always do the filtering yourself. Or if you are lazy, just do a pre- and post- emphasis using Pro-Q, sandwiching the compressor between two pro-q instances, one lowering the bass with a low shelf and the other one boosting the bass with an identical shelf the exact same amount.

Because Pro-Q has symmetrical filters these two pro-q instances basically null (well not completely but all the way down to -90dBFS or more).

Can anyone chime in if Fabfilter Pro-C does any SSL styles?
