H-Comp Hybrid Compressor

“My new favorite compressor. Why hasn't anyone ever thought before of having a wet/dry control, or of release times in musical values?”

“H-Comp Hybrid Compressor is really a hybrid plugin like it says. I definitely get the attitude I’m looking for out of this compressor.”

“I consistently go to H-Comp and H-EQ when I want modern control with a classic, vintage/analog tone. They’re my two go-to’s for huge vibe, color and tone. ”

“H-Comp is a beast of a compressor – an absolute essential in our productions. The BPM-linked release times, the Punch transient control and limiter, the option for parallel compression: they all make it perfect for every occasion. A bona fide classic.”

“H-Comp is great for punching up guns and explosions, with its combination of transient control, extreme compression, and a wet-dry Mix control. I use it along with the MV2 Compressor to create size, power and that ‘Hollywood Sound’ for my film projects.”

“One of my favorite features of H-Comp is being able to time the release to a rhythmic note based on tempo. The Punch knob is also extremely useful for putting transients back into my signal: using it together with a rhythmically timed release will make your bass and drums very thick and punchy. I also use H-Comp as a parallel compressor on my drums or bass to make them pump musically. ”

“Compressors play an important role when designing sound effects, and H-Comp is one of my go-to’s. It has this ability to add a tasty flavor to a sound, probably because of the tube modeling and circuit emulation. H-Comp makes things compress with a richness I don’t hear from most other compressors.”

“I love how H-Comp sounds on drum groups. I used to run three different plugins on the drums to get the right amount of compression, punch and limiting. Now I just use this plugin for all three things. ”

“I’ve been using the H-Comp on my drum subs and setting the release by the tempo. The Mix knob makes it easy to add the non-compressed signal back in without dealing with latency.”

“I primarily use H-Comp on my drum buss. It really takes the sound to the next level. The Mix feature also helps me to get the right balance I’m looking for without burning another group send on the console.”

“What I love about H-Comp is the ability to crush with attack and punch and then dial back either the Threshold or the mix to tame it into the track.”
