The Cenozoix compressor is superb for beginners onward. I hadn't tried it because I thought I'd drive myself batty due to the number of parameters, but I was wrong. It's incredibly easy to get a great result. Thanks Mike!
This takes the cake as the best utility compressor for me. I’ll still go to the La-2a 1176 and Fairchild for more color, but this gets you modern and controlled better than any other compressor imo.
Just be aware, there is a bug with the OS, at least on my system. I did report it and they were able to recreate it so I'm sure a fix is on the way! On my end the higher the OS the more low end gets cut from the mix (on the mixbus). Shame too because the OS sounds great otherwise. Great compressor tho 🙂
@@HumanBeingWithFeelings Sorry to hear that! That's what happens when your "beta team" is made up of people who pay to be there and don't have the proper experience to be testing products you are selling on the open market. You end up getting a group of people who just want early access. They don't care about the testing and usually have no business being testers in the first place. I beta test for several large deveoplers so I know the process that goes into testing plugins. This kind of stuff would have NEVER made it to release with any of the companies I work for. I literally found this bug in less than 5 minutes. As soon as I saw they were allowing people to pay to be beta testers I knew things were going to go downhill, fast lol.
@@matt_nyc_audioengineer I'm just so shocked that it doesn't even work for me. I mean it's not that I'm using windows XP or smth. I'm using win10 and the last version of Live.
Yes and no. Compression by nature adds odd harmonics. With no compression there are no harmonics except on the MU type. The even/odd knob adds even harmonics to soften the sound. Like Pro-C 2 this is a "clean" compressor, how clean depends on the compressor's envelopes used with its attack and release
too many knobs for me. Personally if I want the characteristics of a 2500, I want all the characteristics not just the timing. I feel like TDR nailed the clean compressor with a simpler GUI
Your comment makes no sense. On what basis do you say that? Not enough features?! Not versatile enough?! Makes me think your comment is more of a justification to yourself to not have to spend money.

Been using it for a couple of days, really like it, it's nice to have that many options out of one plugin. Thanks Mike, always enjoy your videos.
Thanks Mike!
i saw this review coming. i like the idea of this comp as a 1 stop shop for all comps. so many diff flavors.
Cheers!
true....Yet kind of reinventing the wheel. so versatile.... But have to figure out how to use it on every source....
Thank you for that great tutorial !
In someways like the Sonible smart comp 2 with the layout. Excellent review and it’s an amazing compressor.
Thanks fo the video! You have helped me become a professional with my mixes

Same experience here
there are many bugs, I can't even use it in Ableton (win10).

@@NuclearDeathWalk I would encourage you to report it if you haven't.

Please can you review the Three body tech Kirchhoff EQ
Let me know when you find the plugin of the decade....
Blessings mike

Can anyone please tell me about the cpu hit?
low, only 2% here on my system with OS 2X.
it doesn't work in Ableton. Waiting for an update that fixes it.
Works for me
@@djvoid1 may I ask what Ableton version you are using?
@@HumanBeingWithFeelings Current version of 11
@@djvoid1 which OS?
@@djvoid1 ok thanks. I'm using 11. I've heard people having issues using both versions.. glad it works for you,cheers!
PA goes Fabfilter plugins? First the Kirchoff now this one?
They needed a good bus comp...hate to say it but this blows townhome, purple and bxopto away...LOL
@@johnisrael5183 did you try the Bettermaker? Also a great bus compressor. I mixed last week a cover of The Cure, Friday On My Mind, I was impressed.

Does this comp give saturation or not?
Yes and no.
Compression by nature adds odd harmonics. With no compression there are no harmonics except on the MU type. The even/odd knob adds even harmonics to soften the sound.
Like Pro-C 2 this is a "clean" compressor, how clean depends on the compressor's envelopes used with its attack and release
it's not doing negative ratios, which is a shame :).
That was a little bit of a disappointment for me too, but the PA bundle also comes with the elysia mpressor which does it.
PLEASE COMPARE TO PRO C2, NO ONE HAS DONE A PROPER SHOOTOUT
