Waves releases H-Comp and H-Delay

Waves has announced the release of H-Comp and H-Delay.

About these new plug-ins, Waves says: "First, we took everything we learned when we modeled classic hardware for our award-winning SSL 4000 Collection, V-Series, and The API Collection. Then, we imagined a series of plug-ins that would blend the best of yesterday's sound with today's technology. Finally, we brought these elements together, and created the plug-ins that would realize our vision."

H-Comp Hybrid Compressor

H-Comp is a dynamics processor that combines the modeled behavior of transformers, tubes, and transistors, together with the power and precision that only a plug-in can provide.

Featuring:

• Analog modeled release behavior.
• Wet/Dry mix for easy parallel compression.
• Unique transient pass-through control.
• Exclusive BPM-sync release function.
• Analog character modes.
• Output limiter/clipper modes.
• External sidechain support.
• BPM Readout.

Controls:

• Threshold - 0 to -48 dB.
• Ratio - 1 to 50.
• Punch – 0 to 30.
• Attack - 0.5 to 100 ms.
• Release - 3 to 3000 ms | 1/64T to 2 Bar.
• Mix - (Dry/Wet) 0 to 100.
• Sync - BPM/Host/MS.
• Analog - Off, Modes 1 to 4.
• Limiter - On/Off.
• Output - +/- 18 dB.
• Meter Mode - In\GR\Out, 0 to -48 dB dBFS.

H-Delay Hybrid Delay

H-Delay delivers everything from old school PCM42-style effects to slap-back echo, ping-pong delay, and tempo-sync with modulation.

Featuring:

• Up to 3500 ms delay time.
• Variable pitch delay time behavior.
• Analog character modes.
• Infinite feedback support.
• LFO-controlled pitch modulation.
• LoFi mode.
• Tap + BPM sync.
• Full MIDI support.

Controls:

• Delay – 1 to 3500 ms or BPM Multiples (note values).
• BPM/Ms – Display Mode Toggle.
• Sync – Host/Manual.
• Modulation Depth – 0 to 100.
• Modulation Rate – 0.1 to 6000 Hz.
• Ping Pong – On/Off.
• Feedback – 0 to 200.
• Phase Reverse L/R – In/Out.
• LP Filter – 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
• HP Filter – 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
• LP/HP Filter Link.
• Dry/Wet Mix – 0 to 100.
• Analog – Off, Modes 1 to 4.
• LoFi – On/Off.
• Output – +/-18 dB.
• Output Meter – -48 to 0 dBFS.
• Tap Pad.

Pricing & Availability

H-Delay and H-Comp are available for Windows and Mac OS X in VST, AU, RTAS and TDM formats priced at $200 each for the native formats or $400 each for the TDM versions.
