Get Grater Light From Yum Audio FREE For A Limited Time

Yum Audio offers the Grater Light (€55 value) compressor as a FREE download for a limited time.

I have honestly and truly lost track of how many compressors there are in my plugin folder. That said, there’s always space for another dynamics processor. Grater Light from Yum Audio isn’t your traditional sort of compressor. What it lacks in control it more than makes up for in character. You can get Grater Light free for a limited time.

Grater Light has only a quartet of controls, but that is more than enough for this pint-sized powerhouse. The interface itself evokes industrial machinery that has seen constant use. The control layout is clear, with each individual control having a clear and defined space. There is a distinct lack of metering present. No visual feedback isn’t present, so you’ll have to use your ears when dialing things in.

The central lever acts as the main control and adds over-the-top compression to your sound source. This gets brutal quickly and is best served in moderation. However, I’m not your father, so do as you please in that regard. Compression is quick, and it absolutely will suck the room sound out of your material if desired.

Sharpness acts as a dual attack and release stage for the compressor. Lower settings have more gradual effects on the compression envelope, and higher settings will absolutely catch the transient in quick order and smash down the signal.

The final two elements are the gain and the mix sliders. Gain is just makeup gain; you know what it does. The mix slider does as described as well, allowing for more gradual blending on the smashed signal with the dry unaffected material.

Grater Light is a fun one-trick pony of a dynamics processor. It lacks the granularity of something like Xfer’s OTT, but there is something to be said about quick and nimble processors. If you’re interested, snag it quickly before the limited-time offer ends.
