SPECOMP : Spectral Analog Compressor! - Analog Obsession

[AnalogObsession]

Spectral Analog Compressor!

SPECOMP will compress overall signal and naive frequencies up to its magical circuit and tame whole range of sound.

This compressor based S-Type console compressor but heavily modified.

A simple meter to show overall gain reduction and frequency compression.

Plugin has simple compressor's settings as usual but magic is happening inside!

You will notice SPECOMP will put everything together, instantly!

- ANALOG OBSESSION LOGO: Oversampling. It will turn to red when oversampling is engaged. Also, show you a notification.

Sounds quite good ! Could you please increase (a lot !!!) the maximum make-up volume please ? +15dB is really not enough, everytime I have to add gain after the compressor. Cheers !

Hi!

Next update will extend output range and also fix for release knob readout.

Thanks!

Thank you, I really love the sound of this compressor !

Btw : a dry/wet option would make it plain perfect !

Thank you, it's a nice compressor.
I have read somewhere that it is a "spectral compressor", and elsewhere, that it is "SSL based". Would you care to elaborate a bit about what makes it special?
Is it taming resonant frequencies automatically like Soothe or some dynamic equalizers?

Btw : a dry/wet option would make it plain perfect !

I think it's already here (by turning a screw on the GUI)

Hi!

You are right. It's SSL based and spectral. Works like dynamic eq but whole range according to resonat freqs.

Thanks

Version 1.1 has mix feature. Check meter's screw.

Thanks

Just a small thing in Cubase: SPECOMP VST3 is sorted in the category "Other", not in "Dynamics", which would be expected. YALA and Varimoon e.g. are correctly identified as "Dynamics". Most of your newer plugins seem to get that wrong, though, I read somewhere that you changed frameworks, so that might be it. I don't know how things are handled there, but this is from the VST3 SDK documentation:

If you're using JUCE, maybe this could help:

It's not a biggie, as most of the time when I want to use a plugin and know the name, I just use the search, but I cannot remember all the AO plugin names, so it's nice to browse the dynamics subtree once in a while to have a look at what's there

Very nice. Thanks Tunca, you've been coming up with some genuinely nice stuff. I haven't been using your plugins recently, but this looks very interesting and I will give it a try. The improvements to the oversampling and the inclusion of the auto gain compensation in some of your plugins are spot-on and make your plugins very attractive, keep up the good work, it's nice the patreon gig is working out for you.

And the new GUIs looks spiffy. Overall, nice work.

Thank you so much for the update ! It's one of the best compressors I've ever heard !!
