Three-Body Technology Cenozoix Compressor (Plugin Alliance)

[El°HYM]

Man, I had so much hope in the Kirchoff EQ and now this.

Kirchoff EQ latest version 1.70 is working exceptionally well here. I think that plugin can be considered "fully complete".

But yeah, the other plugins are a bit of a mixed bag. Cenozoix is also working as expected, as a compressor, except for the 8x oversampling buggy latency reporting to the host (and the sometimes weird behavior of the Vintage Tube model but I haven't been able to track down it's strange buggy behavior reliably yet). So just avoid it. For most things 2x oversampling is more than enough.

Ok, this is good news. Thanks

Yeah, it's super weird. It's like it's a separate parallel process where they take the delta, thus extracting the harmonics only, and then manipulating this delta, including it's maximum volume.

testing a bit further i think this might be it, feels like they slapped a seperate parallel 'box tone' harmonics algo on top of it without real connection/interaction with the compressor harmonic behaviour.

still i rate this plugin quite high though, the clean character + declick/clamp has some unique flavors to offer. red with declick is something unique for me and i use master/clean/.. occasionaly for mastering when Unisum/AMC/whatever does not cut it.

bought a few of their deep vintage thingies and i like green ADDA, 1084 and transformer (hard to describe but it sounds a bit Nebula-y to me without the CPU/ram destruction). but it feels like a mixed bag and a little red flag-y regarding impulse ripple/bit depth truncation

Hello everyone,
I am excited to share my latest video where I review and compare the Cenozoix plugin with products from UAD, SSL, and Arturia. In this video, I go over the detailed functionalities of each plugin and provide an in-depth analysis of their sound and performance. I’ve carefully examined the differences and similarities between these products, and I hope you’ll find the information valuable.

Please note that this comparison is based on my own testing and analysis, and I’ve made sure to cover all the relevant aspects of each plugin to provide a comprehensive overview. I would greatly appreciate it if you could watch with a kind and constructive perspective.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

so, as it’s on sale for 62€ right now and my demo is gone… how is everybody doing with cenozoix after the Honeymoon and in general? are most bugs gone? thx in advance!

I just picked this up along with the Kirchoff EQ. With the dynamic discount (60%) and a monthly voucher they were priced way too well to finally pass up. Looking forward to digging into this.

a audio force from china, their plugin and virtual instrument are very Impressive

I own and like most of their effects, but I would say that Dan Worral’s video on the eq at least is
worth watching.
