ACM510X1 Channel Compressor

The ACM510X1 emulates all the desirable qualities of a professional analogue channel compressor, taming dynamics without restricting the natural character of a mix or performance.

Presented as a virtual 500-series module with a modern stylized user-interface, the ACM510X1 provides soft-knee compression coupled with a gentle analogue style overdrive for warmth and character at high signal levels. The ACM510X1 can be used in mono or stereo channels, delivering professional console-grade processing, with efficient use of CPU and system resources.

More efficient use of CPU and system resources allows more plug-in instances in a typical audio workstation project:

• Smooth controls with no 'zipper noise' when adjusting the plug-in settings.
• Switchable side-chain highpass filter prevents over compression of low frequency transients.
• Warm analogue style overdrive when driven with high signal levels.
• Physically modelled rotary control modes.
• Resizable, modern user interface. As intuitive and easy to use as a traditional analogue console channel compressor.
• VST, VST3, AAX and CLAP plug-in.
• Windows and Linux compatible.
• Easy to install.

Demo versions are free to download. The ACM510X1 is also available as part of the ACM500X bundle. Learn more about the ACM series plug-ins at www.acmt.co.uk
