SN01-G is a dynamic range compression VST plug-in, inspired by two classic VCA buss compressors of UK and US variety. It has switchable linked feed-forward/feedback topology, with highly variable knee, optional internal side-chain filtering, optional 'push' effect, and adjustable wet/dry ratio (alongside the mandatory controls for threshold, ratio, gain, and envelope). The plug-in is designed to work both as musically pleasing buss glue while also being an efficient channel insert with low ASIO/CPU footprint.

Features in detail:

  • threshold from +20dB to -20dB.
  • ratio from 1:1 to infinity (brick-wall).
  • gain up to +24dB.
  • attack in range from 0.03ms to 30ms.
  • release in range from 50ms to 2 seconds.
  • adjustable knee width 0-24dB (0dB = hard-knee).
  • adjustable knee strength (0% = hard knee).
  • 2 optional filters for internal side-chain.
  • optional 'push' effect for more extreme compression.
  • dry/wet control for parallel compression.
  • switchable feed-forward/feedback topology.
  • no saturation modelling.

I don't know how this plugin has not received more attention and acclaim. It does exactly what it should do, with more flexibility and drastically less CPU than any other plugin I've come across. Some tape plugins claim that they can be used across multiple tracks, but that claim means very little if it uses up 50% of your CPU to do so. With this plugin, that becomes a reality, with a barely noticable CPU hit.

The addition of either offline oversampling or some high frequency filtering would be welcome additions when using more extreme settings, but I'm running it with great success in cakewalk, where you can oversample any individual plugins.

Kudos to the developer for making the first tape emulation plugin we can all become fanatical about (which we should!!!) and can use all over our mixes.

Hi. Thanks for the free plugin! Works great in FL Studio but both version of my download did not have a GUI.

SN01.dll and SN01_x64.dll are GUI-less. Those files with G (SN01G.dll and SN01G_x64.dll) are with GUI. Both versions, GUI-less and the one with GUI should work alongside each other. At least they do in Cubase 5. Sadly, I have no access to FL Studio, so, I currently cannot look further into it.

Ah, it was apparently a mistake on my part -- GUI didn't get compiled into 64-bit release. Talk about lame :D. It should work now.

As VCA, auto release please... ^_^.

The lack of auto release was the instance of me leaning toward the "US variety" :D Hm, but one switch could still fit in there--no promises, but it goes into my TODO list;).

Thanks for the compressor, sounds really great! I downloaded both versions and also only got a grey modern looking GUI not the nice green one with the vu meter.

Thanks for an up date or info on how to get the green version advertised.

Well, I'm afraid, I don't quite understand what you mean. There is no "grey modern looking GUI" compiled into any of the files, unless what you mean is the default UI of your DAW, in which case please see my other reply to C.Ray. Also, some visual clue would be helpful..screenshot maybe?

Hi.

I downloaded the SN01G_x64.dll file and my Studio One has it up and working properly but it is a small grey plugin with 8 controls.

Should I delete the file and try downloading again?

Thanks very much.

I missed a switch to include the GUI into 64-bit release. I uploaded the fixed version, it should work now (tested with Cakewalk 2019 64-bit.). Sorry for inconvenience.

Thanks for the freeware! SN01G_x64 is GUI-less here too, Ableton Live 9.7 (Only show the generic Live UI).

Thanks! Got the full green gui and I must say, or rather rave about this comp/limiter. I have a ton of great comp plugins and this is in another league, sounds very much like a great hardware comp...thanks so much! I will be telling all my studio friends about this. Keep up the amazing work.

Thanks for encouragement -- the real "heroes" are the guys mentioned in the credits section of manual, though;) Anyway, I'm happy you like this comp. I do, too :D.

One last question, are the two models API and SSL?

Yes, you can clearly tell from envelope ranges, shapes of SC filters, or the look of GR meter. However, to be thorough, I took some inspiration from Tube-tech, too. That's where the knee came from. I have the feeling that it makes a pretty good approximation of "opto-like" behavior (the smooth kind, not the pumping). But yes, the main inspiration came from API and SSL, I simply love the sound of VCA compression.

Bug in FL Studio 20 (Windows 10) with the SN01G_x64 version: closing and reopening the interface will cause the Mode and Push controls to reset to F and 0 respectively. This is just a GUI bug, the modes themselves don't actually change.

Confirmed. It pertained to all versions/platforms/DAWs. Please, download the fixed version (1.02). Thanks for letting me know;).
