DCAM FREECOMP

DCAM Free Comp is a buss compressor based on a classic British buss compressor design. It’s not your regular compressor, this is the monster with good analog characteristics.

It is a BUSS COMPRESSOR, so use it on your drum buss or the entire mix. Not that useful on single channels or tracks. It is intended to gel or glue subgroups, busses, and entire mixes together while enhancing punch and definition.

ComBear

ComBear is your next goto compressor for all music production purposes, it is a parallel compressor plugin. The parallel compression means in simple words, take the original audio track (individual or group or Bus), and mix that audio track with the compressed track. The ComBear makes it very easy because of its mix knob. Just adjust this knob according to how much parallel compression you need.

The user interface is very minimal yet extremely powerful, with two big knobs for compression and mix, two sliders for input and makeup gain, visual representation, a funny bear face that changes its face as you increase or decrease the compress knob, and one on/off button for bypassing the plugin.

WTCOMP

It distinguishes itself from the regular VST compressors because of its straightforward use. the sole issue you have got to try to do is simply turn the warm-level that applies the compression rather than going crazy with dozen of parameters! the inner structure is incredibly advanced, as well as associate intelligent audio-clip system. Ideal for mastering and single tracks.

Plektron’s WTComp relies on the parallel compression’s technique that maximizes the signaling instead of destroying the dynamics. The tube simulation makes the overall audio signal very warm without any artificial distortion. When comparing the processed audio file with another regular compressor, you notice that WTComp sounds warm and fat and not square waves.

TDR Kotelnikov

TDR Kotelnikov is a single band compressor/dynamics processor combining its musical sounding feature. As a descendant of the venerable TDR Feedback compressor VST plugin. Kotelnikov has directly transmissible many distinctive options as peak and RMS content, associate degree intuitive interface, and powerful, state of the art, high-precision algorithms.

With a sonic signature best described as “stealthy”, even though the Kotelnikov has the capability of manipulating the dynamic range dramatically, still this free compressor VST plugin preserves the original tone, timbre, and punch of a musical signal. Hence, it is perfectly suited to stereo bus compression as well as other creative applications.

TDR Feedback Compressor II

TDR Feedback Compressor II is a free feedback compressor VST plugin by Tokyo Dawn Records and is a major update. This compressor VST plugin is kind of different as TDR Feedback Compressor II analyzes the output and the result is very musical compression.

TDR Feedback Compressor II takes this traditional compression concept to a new level with a highly flexible, yet intuitive control scheme. It still has all familiar controls found in many commercial compressor plugins, still sounds different in its way.

MCompressor

MCompressor is a free compressor VST plugin by Melda Production, this free VST plugin allows regular and custom shape compression using user-defined shapes which can create various dynamic effects such as expansion, gate or custom shapes for rhythmic content.

With the highly customizable graphical user interface, you can change the colors and resize the plugin itself as per your requirements. It supports mono, stereo, and up to 8 channel surround processing with additional MS processing.

Molot

Molot is a free compressor VST by vladg sound, this compressor plugin is not transparent at all, it is full of character and can change to sound characteristics dramatically. Molot is generally made for Drum Busses, Group channels and sends as it is heavy on the CPU.

Molot does not claim to emulate any hardware unit but the result can be compared to some of the famous analog compressors. The user interface is hard to understand so I recommend you to read the manual to understand how the Molot compressor plugin functions.

DC1A

DC1A by Klanghelm is a compressor full of characters of good old analog hardware compressor units. DC1A is a little brother of DC8C. It has some of the power settings from its Big brother DC8C and assigned them into only two simple input and output knobs make it easy to use.

DC1A features negative compression, parallel compression, you have the choice to compress left and right channel independently using the DUAL MONO, peak and RMS compression using a RELAXED switch and DEEP activates a high pass filter to reduce pumping on the bass-heavy material.

Rough Rider 2

Rough Rider 2 is a vintage style modern compressor VST by Audio Damage that provides a uniquely warm sound. Perfect for adding compression effects to your drum buss but be careful as the nature of this compressor VST is very aggressive. it also great for warming the synths, basses, guitars, and vocals.

It is not a compressor to use on every audio or midi track, Rough Rider 2 is best for adding a pumping effect to rhythmic tracks. Use the mix knob to reduce its aggressiveness.

OTT

OTT is a free multiband compressor VST plugin by Xfer Records who created popular wavetable synth Serum. OTT is one of the widely used or overused multiband compressors by EDM producers as it tends to make any dull sound shine thanks to its upward/downward compression algorithm.

It is a very aggressive multiband compressor used by many famous EDM artists like Skrillex. Use this plugin after applying the reverb to get that shinny pumping reverbed tail effect.

MJUC jr.

MJUC jr. is a free variable tube compressor VST by Klanghelm has some analog kind of character to it. The combination mk1 and mk2 from its big brother MJUC make the core of MJUC jr. The interstage transformer and the two gain stages make a very deep and lively processed sound.

MJUC jr. is capable of producing subtle compression to aggressive pumping compression. It has two knobs one for compress and another for makeup gain, one switcher to switch the time constant.

TDR Kotelnikov is a wideband dynamics processor combining high fidelity dynamic range control with deep musical flexibility. As a descendant of the venerable TDR Feedback Compressor product family, Kotelnikov has directly inherited several unique features such as a proven control scheme, individual release control for peak and RMS content, an intuitive user interface, and powerful, state of the art, high-precision algorithms.

With a sonic signature best described as “stealthy”, Kotelnikov has the ability to manipulate the dynamic range by dramatic amounts, while carefully preserving the original tone, timbre and punch of a musical signal. As such, it is perfectly suited to stereo bus compression as well as other critical applications.

The concept is “proudly digital” in the sense that it doesn’t try to emulate any previously existing device. This is the original!

Key specs and features

• 64bit multi-rate processing structure for highest accuracy
• “Delta” oversampled signal path (bit transparent at 0dB gain reduction)
• Super fast, yet natural sounding compression
• “Crest factor” based control scheme offering independent release controls for peak and RMS events
• Flexible sidechain highpass filter
• Advanced stereo linking options optimized for the stereo bus
• Delta preview mode previews the difference between compressed and original signal
• Latency compensated, click free bypass (i.e. processing never interrupted)
• User interface rescaling (100%, 125%, 150%)

The improved “Gentleman’s Edition” is available here.

It’s safe to say that the new TDR Kotelnikov is quite possibly the most transparent mastering compressor on the freeware market (and beyond).

This is one of the first software compressors that doesn't annoy me on program.. Very nice!

Wow this plug in compressor is on par with hardware compressors. It is clean and at the same time it sits the mix and everything just sounds better.
