Overloud GEM Comp670
Comp670: Legendary Tube Compressor LimiterComp670 is the Overloud recreation of a very rare legendary tube compressor. It has a unique and distinctive tone thanks to a large number of transformers in the signal chain which gives it a very warm tone. Hyper-realistic simulation of the original unit thanks to the 4th generation DSP technology Three different units recreated, with multiple dynamics and coloration Built-in Parallel Compression Soft-knee / hard-knee control with the additional DC Threshold parameter Built-in filters on the Sidechain Meter Calibration: calibrate the VU meters at 4 different sensibilities Multilevel undo-redo A/B Comparison Lots of presets designed in real mixing sessions Scribble Strips: take notes anywhere on the plugin panel Beyond the Original HardwareComp670 extends the features of the original hardware: it combines the flexibility of the digital world to the sound character of the analog processing.Model SelectionSelect one of the three units sampled in London, Los Angeles and Milan studio, each one with its personality and unique tone.Sidechain FilterYou can tweak a Low Cut filter on the Sidechain to reduce the compressor sensitivity to low frequencies. This is particularly useful to control the amount of "pumping" effect.Parallel CompressionParallel compression is a powerful mixing technique which helps improve the overall impact of the track while leaving the transients intact. It is achieved by summing the compressor output to the original track.Three units in one pluginFrom the '50s to nowadays, each original unit has been serviced multiple times: it has its own history and component tolerance that gives it a unique tone and dynamic response.That's why Overloud sampled three different units (found in London, Los Angeles, and Milan studios), and packed them into a unique plugin.Compression Curve TweakingA trimmer inside the original unit allowed to change the compression characteristic from soft-knee to hard-knee by changing the biasing current of the feedback amplifier.The Comp670 brings this control on the front panel allowing to tweak the compressor response to dynamic.System RequirementsMacComp670 is available as Audio Unit, VST, AAX32 (ProTools 10.3.5 and above), AAX64 (ProTools 11 and 12) plugins, as well as a standalone application.Both 32bit and 64bit are natively supported.You can authorize Comp670 on up to three computers that you own and one USB stick with a simple one-click software procedure (no hardware key needed).
