Goodhertz Vulf Master Compressor

[multree]

I have now tested it thoroughly…. Used it heavily on my latest EP. Gotta say - I REALLY like it.

The first release candidate is out now. Also includes a standalone clipper.

i have the regular vulf compressor , should i upgrade , advice now

VCME is absolutely brilliant. You definitely should upgrade. You get the Vulf sound and so much more. Now the clipper section is a plugin in itself too. Love it.

What about the other way around. If you have VCME is there any point in having the regular VC?

Is it only soft clipping, or are there different clipping options?
I'd like it if it could be set from anywhere from hard - soft

For me personally, I don’t think so. I don’t even have it installed anymore, sorry to say.

I'm sure there is

I've only tried the original Vulf compressor briefly but gotta say it is quite different. The imparted eq characteristic is drastically different (VCME is totally clean in this regard... or transparent if you like and vulf drastically alters the frequency response). There's also noise and warble which makes the OG Vulf a different animal altogether.

Personally (on certain settings) I find it closer to the comp section in Tupe.

I got VCME because I really liked the comp feature in Tupe, but didn't really need the rest.
I was also quite disappointed that the frequency response changed drastically from standard to HQ in Tupe (this meant I had to use it in the HQ setting the whole time). This is something that doesn't happen in VCME as far as I could tell.

EDIT: the EQ issue in Tupe has been fixed since the latest version (3.13) and it's now possible to flip between HQ and standard without timbre changes.

I made heavy use of VCME on my latest releases during mixing AND mastering (no other compressor, limiter or clipper was used as far as I remember):

These are some really nice songs. I enjoyed it very much.

You’re right. The OG VC is something different altogether and has that distinct Vulf signature sound. I used to have it in parallel a lot. Since I’ve got VCME, I’ve stopped using it though, and use the clipping section for the saturated sounds that I need. I dare say there’s still quite a bit of Vulf in this.

Awesome. Congratulations in advance. I’ll send an email for the latest installer. This comp is seriously good.
