The AI-Powered Compressor Plugin For Creators

pure:comp is a straightforward compression plug-in that can instantly control a track’s dynamics – all at the touch of a single button.

AI-Powered Algorithms At Your Service

pure:comp simplifies the process of applying compression to any instrument or voice track. With its intelligent algorithms, unique learning-feature and input specific profiles, you can rely on pure:comp to deliver professional signal shaping without any artifacts or overcooking. With this tool in your arsenal, expect to spend much more time focusing on the creative aspects instead of tweaking interdependent compression parameters.

Create, Compress, Conquer!

Use pure:comp to make 808s punchy, get rid of muddiness in a kick or transform a drum track from weak to powerful in no time – shape the dynamics of your track without any hassle. The compressors’ visualization will let you know exactly how the plug-in is enhancing your input signal. You can modify the compression of the AI-powered processing by simply using the single compression parameter – this control combines all the general compression parameters such as threshold, ratio, attack and release.

Nail Your Sound By Fine-Tuning

pure:comp comes with two very effective sound-shaping options: Style and Clarity. Toggle through the clean, mixed and dirty styles to decide what kind of compression character you want to dial in. Clarity has got you covered whenever you want to increase the transparency of your track. The Clarity control dials in spectral compression, making sure that tonal imbalances are dynamically smoothened out.

Features

• Automatic parametrization for high-quality results
• Intelligent processing and input-specific profiles
• Style control, compression strength and clarity parameter

Suit up your mix with this elegant compressor/saturator/enhancer/enchanter

LUXE is an effect plugin that compresses and saturates an audio signal in a quite subtle but musical way. It is very useful for making a track “fit in the mix”, and can be used with very good results on a drum bus, a vocal track, or anything in between.

LUXE is very easy to use – simply choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithms, and set the desired processing level. Don’t be fooled by the modest control possibilities – under the hood is a very sophisticated set of parameters that will treat your incoming audio with great care, musicality, and warmth.

The slider sets the amount of the effect. Under the hood, this parameter controls a set of internal (non-visible) parameters which makes LUXE an easy tool to use for quick results. The OUT knob sets the output volume and ranges from silence to +6 dB.

The alternate FINESSE algorithm offers a slightly different frequency response, and also adds some edge to the internal saturation module.

• 1. Good mood / God mode – Choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithm. Both are very nice.
• 2. Watch it squeeze – Indicator that shows the amount of LUXE treatment that is given to your audio signal.
• 3. More or less – How much goodness do you need?
• 4. Tune in, trim out – Output level. Not Input level. Not Putin level.

Features

• Super-simple interface that lets you focus on more important stuff than knobs
• Two carefully developed algorithms that cover a wide array of uses
• Output for controlling the signal
• Low CPU footprint

A compressor beyond the ordinary

Richter is a tectonic compressor, designed to achieve heavy compression with a minimal amount of artifacts. It is the result of many years of experimenting in the Klevgrand labs. Normally a heavily compressed audio signal gets distorted, often with a nasty “zipper noise” artifact because of how the internal envelope followers are engineered. The experiments led to a brand new approach resulting in a compressor that empowers you to squeeze every bit of sonic perfection out of your tracks. Use it for meaty mixes, punchy drums or smooth, transparent vocal tracks.

Due to how the algorithm is designed, there are a few unconventional controls to tame Richter. First of all: one single parameter controls how much compression will get applied. The other (important) parameter controls how the internal envelope follower will react to transients vs continuous/lasting sounds. These two parameters make Richter a highly intuitive compressor where the user quickly will be able to dial in the wanted sound. On top of that there’s a boost switch that literally makes the amount span go to eleven. And, as the name suggests, earthquake levels are possible.

Features

• Superheavy compression with minimal unwanted artifacts
• Intuitive Transients and Amount dials
• Real time graph visualization
• Tonal control
• Three-step boost switch
• Input trim control
• Makeup gain, Dry/Wet mix and Output control

5 Band Compressor

W.A Production went above and beyond and rather than give you the standard 3 band EQ, they put 5 EQ controls at your fingertips. Now you have more control to master your mix. You can customize:

• Low
• Low Mid
• Mid
• Mid High
• High

You are also able to adjust the amount of Threshold of each individual band as well as the Makeup gain of each individual band. This will give you an amazingly clear and professional sound that will please the ears of not only the producer but the listener.

The Mix Knob, as a Multi-use Tool

You can use the Mix knob to toggle between hearing how much of the effect is being used and compare it to the dry mix. You can also use the Mix Knob as a parallel compressor by adding 30% of the effected sound to the mix.
Built-in Limiter

No need to use a third party limiter. Not only do W.A Production know what it’s like to have a slew of different effects open consuming your CPU or you rack space, but they know the better the organization, the more productive you can be.

With a simple flick of a switch the limiter keeps the master track, individual audio file or MIDI instrument from exceeding the 0dB mark. The 0dB mark, also referred to as “Unity Gain”, is the maximum peak anything in a song. Anything above that will result in the dreaded “clipping”.

Upward and Downward Compression

These effects are two separate knobs on the interface of The King 2.

Adjusting either the Upward or Downward Compression knob will increase or decrease either compression. Both knobs default at 100 and are capable of dropping to 0 or being increased to 200.

Time Knob

Allows producers to adjust the attack and release time of the Upward and Downward Compression. W.A Production love how both of these compression options compliment the mix of the Multi-Band elements.

Magic EQ

The King 2s Magic EQ is an amazing development that allows you to add EQ to anything being affected whether it be a master rack, individual audio file and or MIDI instrument. The Magic EQ has 3 different shapes/ curves that are designed mainly for cleaning. The 1st option is designed to clean up the muddy frequencies to give the affected element a cleaner sound. The 2nd and 3rd option on the Magic EQ is primarily meant for the master tracks of a project. 

Designed to focus on cleaning up a wide variety of elements at one time. This means cleaning up the muddy frequencies and amplifying what it has polished clean. This will make your bright tones shine and sound crisper.

Input / Output Gain

A major factor in compression plug-ins is an Input Gain and an Output Gain option. These two options are extremely important based on what you are using The King 2 on. Say you have a MIDI Instrument and you need to judge how much of the instrument gains into The King 2, you would adjust the Input Gain knob, and to judge how much The King 2’s effects push out into the mix. 

These features are important to understand and use, because they can bring the clarity of the effect and really show how amazing The King 2 is. W.A Production really hope producers abuse this feature to really get that intense sound that The King 2 provides!

Features

• 5 Band Threshold knobs
• 5 Band Make-Up Gain knobs
• Input/ Output Gain
• Upward Compression Knob, Downward Compression Knob
• Release Time knob
• Overall Plug-In Mix knob
• Magic EQ with 3 different Shapes/ Curves and a built-in Limiter

UltraChannel

Professional Audio Engineering For All

UltraChannel™ is a high-precision channel strip that includes several feature-packed versions of Eventide’s legendary effects, all in one plug-in. Whether mixing or mastering, regardless of genre, UltraChannel is the ultimate tool to make your tracks and mixes come to life. It not only has industry benchmark performance but is also the most versatile channel strip available due to our exclusive FlexiPath™ routing, which allows processors to be ordered based on desired workflow.

The Secret Sauce of Mixing

UltraChannel shines in carving out space for any instrument or vocal to sit just right in the mix. There is an infinite number of ways to generate the exact tone, dynamics and frequency characteristics you’re seeking. Additionally, through its support for side-chaining, you can use an alternative audio source to colour the characteristics of your main signal. It wouldn’t be an Eventide if it didn’t also feature micro pitch functionality (from our flagship H8000 hardware) to thicken or increase the stereo spread of any instrument or vocal.

MAIN FEATURES

FlexiPath™

Allows drag and drop for reordering the signal path of the top-level components (O-Pressor, compressor/de-esser, EQ, Gate) for ultimate flexibility and experimentation.

Soft-Saturation and Transformer Emulation

The output module of UltraChannel contains a model of an analog transformer which can be driven into saturation. When subtly used, it provides distinction for signals of low-frequency content. When driven hard, it recreates classic transformer core saturation.

O-Pressor

Comes with two built-in compressors, one with de-essing and side-chaining, the other is the unique O-Pressor. Derived from of our legendary Omnipressor™, the O-Pressor adds character and extreme compression to your signal-processing arsenal.

5-Band Parametric EQ

Covers the entire audio spectrum allowing you to edit the Frequency, Gain, and Q of each of the 5 bands.

Over 200 Presets

Includes wide range of Factory Presets, many created by Eventide artists, tailored to signal sources such as guitar, bass, kick drum, snare, piano, strings, synths and vocals. They make exploiting UltraChannel’s enormous processing power easy to deploy.

Micro Pitch Shift & Stereo Delays

Apply Eventide’s patented pitch shifting to any source and control the panning and delay spread. Runs in parallel with a pair of delays that allow you to feed its signal back into any of the other modules.

Countless Applications

• Producers
  • UltraChannel can replace several plug-ins at once, allowing you to minimize CPU loading while still giving you full sonic control over every aspect of your tracks.
• Mix Engineers
  • Carve a unique space for each element of a song through selective EQ, gating, and tempo-synced delays.
• Sound Designers
  • Change the entire feel of an instrument through filtering, pitch shifting, delays, or aggressive compression.

Compression has never been this easy

If you work with audio, you will eventually need a good compressor in your toolbox. Korvpressor is an adaptive compressor/limiter, designed for all purposes in audio treatment. It has a super-simple UI with a unique approach on how to tame and visualize a compressor, now also with some added controls to make it even more versatile.

The basic controls are still minimalistic – set the input gain, level of compression, and output gain. The compression algorithm was designed with transparency in mind, and Korvpressor will sound great on almost any kind of sound; all from a vocal track to a full-blown mix. If you push it even harder, it gives a nice squeezing effect.

xxxx

• 1. Input level – Drag up to increase the input signal level.
• 2. Squeeze – This is the main control of Korvpressor. Imagine that you’re pinching the sound waves, so the more squeeze you want, the further down you should go with this handle.
• 3. Output – Make-up gain after the squeezing.
• 4. Post EQ – A musical and versatile EQ to fine-tune your finished sausages.
• 5. Flip the switches – Added controls for the compression behaviour.

Features

• New: Output brickwall limiter on/off switch
• 3-band smooth EQ
• Lookahead on / off

If a Compressor and a Transient Shaper gave birth

Krossbow looks like a Compressor but is totally different, it doesn’t feature a Threshold or Ratio setting. It dynamically ducks the gain towards the desired ‘Maximum Reduction’ based on the incoming signal. Once the yellow ‘Reduction’ needle reaches the orange ‘MAX Reduction’ needle, no further reduction occurs, leaving the rest of your dynamics untouched.

A new kind of Dynamics Processor, using a new special technique. Sculpt and Enhance the Attack, Punch and Impact of your Audio without leaving unwanted artifacts, flattened dynamics and distortion behind. Emphasize the Impactful parts of your Audio while leaving the Natural dynamics intact.

Compressors persist in their compression even after the desired impact enhancement has been achieved, which is not desired in many cases. That’s why Krossbow was Invented. So you don’t mess up unnecessary aspects of your Dynamics, trying to gain some Punch.

Use-Cases

• Enhancing the Dynamical Impact of Kicks, Bass, Synths, Drums and other Instruments
• Breathe life into the Drum bus (Please try this)
• Glue Instruments/Synths and Percussive Elements together
• Recover Dynamic Depth of Heavily Processed/Flattened Elements
• Better Dynamics for cleaner Post Processing like Distortion/Clipping
• Leveling Vocals

Features

• Reduction Amount
• MAX Reduction
• Attack
• Release
• External Sidechain Mode
• 2 Needle Response Modes (Visual)

Harder. Better. Stronger.

We’ve done it again… after the release of “Pumper” we wanted to step up our game and give you even more control over the punch and power of your sounds. The sequel, Pumper 3, has been long in development as our team toiled away to retain the stellar performance parameters of the original plugin whilst adding new features. The end result is a multi-effect powerhouse that achieves the level of immediacy, body and depth that our fans expect and their tracks deserve.

This is our most requested update ever and builds on the Compressor, Saturator and Stereo Imager modules of the original whilst adding more controls to fine tune the processing.

Compressor

The compression module has 4 flexible modes:

• Punchy Mode gives you that direct punch and clarity. This is great for kick drums or percussion.
• Fat will help to bring out the bottom end of your audio and make it sound big.
• Clean is more transparent and perfect for adding cohesion. Great for softer vocals or acoustic instruments.
• Soft is wonderful to use on your master channel. Subtle compression makes everything sound tighter, increasing clarity without sucking the life out of your mix.

New compression parameters for Pumper 3 include adjustable wet / dry parallel compression and RMS shaping controls, ideal for perfecting your sound in the box, without resorting to complex channel audio routing.

Saturator

Add warmth and depth with subtle saturation settings, or push the dial up high for pronounced distortion with a harder edge.

The new Rise and Fall settings allow you to shape transients and smooth out the character of the saturation, both essential controls for fine-tuning the performance of any audio.

Stereo Imager

Bring your tracks to life with the Stereo Image control, adding beautifully clear width and depth. Unique to Pumper 3, the dedicated Low and High shelf modes, alongside frequency and resonance controls, allow you to focus the width processing to specific frequency ranges. Use these settings to emphasise the unique characteristics of a sound.

All In One

Using these 3 modules simultaneously within one plugin is quick, easy and inspiring.

Each module has a dedicated input control for balancing the effects and the real-time waveform window shows a visual representation of your audio, both before and after processing. Essential for accurate A/Bing to check the results of Pumper 3’s processing power.

50 factory presets are designed to get you up and running quickly, with tailored settings for drums, vocals, bass, keys, synths, acoustic instruments and mastering. These are all easily accessible from the plugin menu and of course, you can save you own settings as user presets too.

Pumper 3 is a big leap above and beyond the first version. If you’ve used and enjoyed the original Pumper in the past, this is a perfect upgrade with expanded features and more nuanced controls. If you’re new to this kind of processing, then Pumper 3 is a great starting point, with interface controls as simple or complex as you want it to be. We’ve been using Pumper 3 to beef up our kicks, expand synth lines and widen guitars. It’s your one-stop-shop for creating tracks that will engage and excite your listeners.

Although it looks easy, mixing acoustic guitar, ukulele or mandolin is a very hard job. So many things can go wrong.

That’s why we created Quick AG – the shortcut to the perfect and natural acoustic instruments sound.

QUICK AG KEY FEATURES

Time saver

The aim of Quick AG is to set the perfect sound for your acoustic instrument within a few seconds. This plugin contains everything you may need to turn raw recordings into great-sounding mixes with a fantastic vibe.

Tuned for each instrument

The Selector window lets you choose an instrument you are about to mix and sets the hidden parameters of compressor and EQ to ideal positions. You can achieve audible improvement of your sound just by choosing the right preset.

Instruments Include:

• Baritone
• Guitar
• Spanish
• Ukulele
• Mandolin

Perfectly fitting compressor

No matter if you just want to smooth the levels with clean compression or give the track a bit of analogue colour, Quick AG lets you do it easily. And you may even blend the compressor styles. Again, the internal setting of the compressor corresponds with the selected instrument.

Preset EQ

Based on the Selector settings EQ is automatically set to particular’s instrument optimal settings. Still, you can tweak the body and spark to fit your recording. And you have access to Low Pass and De-Harsh to remove frequencies that may feel disturbing.

Blended reverb

Reverb is the essential part of acoustic guitar chain. You can blend three algorithms perfectly tuned for acoustic instruments. Just set the desired length and amount. Astonishing sound is at your fingertips – Quick AG’s Reverb is set within a few seconds.

… and more

The XTRA section gives your acoustic guitar the final touch. You may add stereo width and overall size. And your guitar will cut through any mix and sparkle like no other.

Smooth Talking

Capturing that perfect vocal take is difficult, but knowing how to process vocals can be even trickier. The first step in the chain is often compression, but with so many different types of compressors to choose from which is the perfect solution for your vocals? W.A Production has created Vocal Compressor to solve that problem, featuring a compression chain that’s transparent, balanced and adds a subtle flavour, colour and grit to make vocals sit perfectly in a mix.

The 3-stage compression passes your audio through 3 distinct types of compressors to tame troublesome peaks, balance dynamics and add flavourful saturation. Throw in gating & colour controls alongside options for parallel compression and you’ve got an all-in-one compression tool that suits vocals perfectly but will also work well on synths, bass, leads and other audio.

Peaks

The first step in the signal chain; the Peaks compressor removes amplitude spikes from the signal to make it sound smoother. It aggressively clamps down on the rogue dynamics of your vocal, preparing the signal for the next stage. You’ll only need to push down the threshold by a few dB to hear the effect in action and at it’s transparent best.

Balance

This is a parallel compressor that leaves loud transients intact whilst making the softer parts of your audio louder. This results in a reduction of overall dynamic range to make the vocal sit better in the mix. Use the Mix and Makeup dials to set the balance between the lightly compressed Peaks output and the heavily compressed Balance processing of the same signal. Don’t hold back on the gain reduction as this compressor needs a threshold of around 20dB to work. Keep pushing that threshold down until things sound good.  

Flavour

This compressor has an integrated tape saturation curve to add harmonics, grit and flavour to the audio. Start subtly and then adjust the threshold until you can hear the bite of your vocal, so it clearly rides over the top of your track.

Gate & Colour

Remove unwanted and distracting pops, clicks and noise with the Gate dial. With the Colour slider, dial in a frequency curve that’s specifically tailored to vocal processing, making your vocal performance sound as professional as possible.

Bypass, Output & Master Mix

The bypass control is smoothed to be as click and pop free as possible for unhindered A/B testing when combined with the Output dial. Choose to mix the compressed signal with your original raw audio via the central Master Mix ratio control, allowing you to dial down the compression ratio for parallel effects.

Visual Feedback

The live visuals of the interface meters show exactly what’s happening to the signal as it travels through each compressor in real-time. This allows for accurate monitoring at every step of the chain.

Presets

With many included presets, it’s easy to find the perfect starting point for your own compression adventures. Categorised into distinct themes, these presets can be used on all sorts of audio, not just vocals. They include everything from subtle shaping to more full-on saturated compression effects.

QuickBass – The All-in-one bass solution

Bass is usually considered to be the coolest of all instruments. Mainly by the bassists. Recorded with a good DI, a fine bass often sounds perfect as you get it and needs just a little push here and there.

And that is why we came up with QuckBass. To give you the quick EQ, quick compression, quick saturation, and fatness in no time. QuickBass is the ultimate bass polisher and finalizer.

QuickBass KEY FEATURES

All-in-one bass solution
Using multiple plugins to achieve one goal makes simply no sense. You can experience unwanted interaction between plugins and their extra features (unnecessary for the job) can drain your CPU power. So we decided to put all the tools you need to get the perfect bass sound into one box with as few knobs as possible to find the sweet spot between speed and versatility.

Ready for your technique
No matter what technique you play Quick bass adapts to it. The EQ is internally preset to deliver the best sound for finger or pick styles, and for funky slap technique. Millerize button makes it ready for slap-solo sound treating your mids a special way. Although most of the curve is preset you still have a few EQ knobs to fine-tune. But starting at zero positions is recommended.

Slight to heavy compression
A great compressor is a must-have. It treats the dynamics and colours too. QuickBass lets you blend between Vari-mu, Opto and FET compressor types to give your bass the desired character. How much you want to squeeze is all your choice.

Bigger, fatter Too thin?
That is a common bass problem. QuickBass solves it with its unique one-knob doubler. And it can also generate sub-bass to give you that nice fat bottom that every song needs. It’s the bass that makes crowds dance.

Gentle to harsh
There’s no amusement without saturation. And QuickBass handles this section with care. Its parallel saturator can deliver anything between “just-a-little” analogue feel and heavy bass distortion only a valve amp could deliver (before there was QuickBass, of course).

Number of presets
QuickBass was developed and tuned with (and by) bassists. It is most likely that you will be able to set up your sound just by dialling one of a huge number of presets prepared by both mixing engineers and bass players like Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree, O.r.k). QuickBass covers all styles from Jazz to Death Metal.

Hassle-free software protection
No iLok, no dongle nor internet access is required for activation. Our software uses licence files to activate your software. You can freely use the purchased software on all your computers as long as you are the user.

Realistic 3D yet flexible GUI
Photorealistic graphic user interface of the plugin gives you the feeling you are touching the real hardware. But it easily adapts to your needs. You can always drag the arrow in the bottom right corner to change its size – make it smaller to save the valuable screen space, or enlarge it to make it easier to use.

64-bit audio quality at ANY sampling rate
The plugin provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses internal 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate. 192 kHz or even higher.

Smart bypass
The intelligent way our plugins manage bypassing ensures that you don’t get any click or harmful noises when automating the parameter. It also compensates for latency ensuring that the bypass states are perfectly in sync with each other.

Intelligent sleep on silence
This plugin intelligently detects whether it makes sense to perform processing at all. And if not, it temporarily turns on sleep mode. In such a state, it requires virtually no CPU at all saves the computing sources for other processes.

A compressor beyond the ordinary

Richter is a tectonic compressor, designed to achieve heavy compression with a minimal amount of artifacts. It is the result of many years of experimenting in the Klevgrand labs. Normally a heavily compressed audio signal gets distorted, often with a nasty “zipper noise” artifact because of how the internal envelope followers are engineered. The experiments led to a brand new approach resulting in a compressor that empowers you to squeeze every bit of sonic perfection out of your tracks. Use it for meaty mixes, punchy drums or smooth, transparent vocal tracks.

Due to how the algorithm is designed, there are a few unconventional controls to tame Richter. First of all: one single parameter controls how much compression will get applied. The other (important) parameter controls how the internal envelope follower will react to transients vs continuous/lasting sounds. These two parameters make Richter a highly intuitive compressor where the user quickly will be able to dial in the wanted sound. On top of that there’s a boost switch that literally makes the amount span go to eleven. And, as the name suggests, earthquake levels are possible.

• Intuitive Transients and Amount dials
• Real time graph visualization
• Tonal control
• Three-step boost switch
