OtiumFX Compadre Beatpuncher VST

COMPADRE is the result of more than one year of research, development and
countless hours of listening tests. The final product is a quality compressor
that not only delivers a highly optimized sonic behavior, but also drips with
it's own character.

Compadre is designed especially for use on beats, drumloops and other percussive
material. Whether your looking for subtle enhancements or heavy duty
compression, Compadre is an extremely efficient and flexible solution.

Features

- Feed forward RMS compressor with high quality characteristics.
- Multiple compression modes for expanded flexibility.
- True stereo sidechain. (4 channel input; 1+2=audio, 3+4=Sidechain)
- High & lowpass filters on the sidechain.
- Further 9 filter models featuring presets with key frequencies in drummixing.
- Adjustable low-level controls to finetune the compression characteristics.
("Snap", "Linearity" & "Envelope").
- Dry/wet control allowing easy "parallel compression".
- Optional extra "Crunch" by enabling a built-in second compressor on the output
stage.
- Optional limiter on output.
- Zero latency.
- 80 categorized presets included.

Application

COMPADRE is a compressor with an attitude. It has it's own unique sound with a
quality response optimized for a dedicated purpose - drums. This makes it very
easy to achieve great results. While the main purpose is as an insert on
drumtracks, COMPADRE is flexible and controlable enough to be usable on other
types of tracks and mixes.

The Sidechain

COMPADRE features true stereo sidechaining allowing both external key input and
sidechain filtering. While this is well known features among hardware
compressors, external input to the sidechain is a rarely found feature in
software processors. COMPADRE brings this essential function to the software
studio.

Of course you can still switch it off, and use it without the sidechain
adjustments.

Compadre Sidechain Filters

There are several options for sidechain filtering in COMPADRE.

You can dial in the setting you need on either the low- or highpass filters, or
you can use one of the nine preset filtermodels.

By adjusting the sidechain filtering you have a great deal of control over which
frequencies will trigger the compression.

For example; if you have a drumloop but only wish comprssion triggered by the
kick drum, simply select the appropiate filter model ("Just Kick") on the
sidechain and voilß! Or perhaps you are looking for a smoother sounding
compression, then just select filter model "Smooth" and it will filter out the
very high and low frequencies that often disturbs a compressor.

COMPADRE also offers a convenient "listen" function, allowing you to monitor the
sidechain and hear exactly what's passing through.

Sidechain - External key input

Using the 4 input channel sidechain version of COMPADRE you can activate "Key
Input" and thereby let the compression of track 1+2 be controlled by the
amplitude level of whatever signal you have routed to input 3+4.

This can be used for an unlimited amount of creative and experimental
applications, but it also has use for a range of traditional and well proven
production techniques; such as "Gating" & "Ducking".

The Characteristics

Want to add punch to your drumtracks? The percussion needs a bit more edge and
tightness? You want your beats to pump, breathe and bounce? Just looking to tame
the peaks, or maybe you want the drumsbus crunched beyond recognition?

COMPADRE features several controls for you to finetune the character of COMPADRE
to suit your purposes:

"Compressor & Shaper" modes

Besides the default "Compressor"-mode, COMPADRE offers a more experimental
"shaper"-mode. When set to this mode, it's possible to achieve interesting
effects ranging from adding subtle punch to material lacking edge and
definition, to wild and funky gated-sounding compression.

"Punch & Flatten" Compression styles

COMPADRE defaults to a tight and punchy sounding compression style. If you are
looking for a more transparent level controling style of compression, just flip
the switch to "Flatten".

The low-level controls

COMPADRE offers a great deal of flexibility by giving the user access to some of
the inner parameters. Useful when you are going for a specific compresion sound,
or when you are facing difficult audio material that requires a special
response.

"Snap": Adjust the "snappy"-ness of the attack.

"Linearity": Adjust the linearity of the compressor transfer function. Basicly
is controls whether the the compression ratio is constant linear or partly
dependant on audio material and settings. Linear squashes the sound, while
non-linear allows more air.

"Envelope": Offers a choice of seven attack/release envelopes for the
"Shaper"-mode.
