Techivation has released M-Compressor 2, a spectral dynamics plug-in for macOS and Windows that combines downward compression, upward compression, gating, and frequency-dependent processing in a single interface.
Unlike conventional multiband compressors, M-Compressor 2 processes the signal spectrally without dividing it into fixed crossover bands. Shelves and Tilt modes adjust how strongly different frequency regions are processed, and a Shaping control modifies the spectral response continuously according to the incoming signal.
Mix Assistant
The plug-in also introduces a new version of Techivation's Mix Assistant. After analysing the audio, the system generates 12 processing styles. Users can select four of these and blend between them using an XY control. All settings produced by the assistant remain visible and can be edited manually.
Pricing and Availability
M-Compressor 2 is available from Techivation's website for an introductory price of $55 until July 20, 2026. The regular price will be $149. Owners of other premium Techivation plug-ins can purchase M-Compressor 2 for $45, and M-Compressor 1 users can upgrade for $35. The plug-in is included at no additional cost for Techivation Full Access users. A fully functional 14-day trial is available from the Techivation website.
