Compressor

Stagecraft Software Compressor is a versatile dynamics effect for producers who want more than straightforward level control. With upward and downward compression plus upward and downward expansion, it handles everything from vocal shaping and noise reduction to gating, limiting and rhythmic pumping. Use it to rein in peaks, bring quieter details forward or reshape a track’s dynamic range. Mid-side, sidechain and parallel compression provide additional ways to control how sounds sit in a mix. Intelligent quantization helps you time swells after bass beats, making it useful for dance tracks with pronounced breathing and movement. Automation supports evolving settings throughout a song, while shareable presets make useful starting points easy to exchange. It suits hobby producers looking to explore several dynamics techniques within one plugin.
