It models the behavior of analog compressors powered by transformers, tubes, and transistors, using the technology that Waves used to develop their SSL 4000 Collection, V-Series, and API Collection plugins. The result is a versatile, analog-style dynamic processor that is fit for almost any mixing task.
The plugin offers four processing modes, all of which are based on different types of analog hardware. The release behavior is modeled after analog gear, too, and it includes a handy BPM-sync feature. H-Comp Hybrid Compressor also comes with an external sidechain input, an output limiter/clipper, transient pass-through control for added punch.
