The WesAudio ngBusComp Compressor combines the glue and character of a classic analog buss compressor, with the precision control and recallability of plug-ins with remote control (plug-in) software.
The WesAudio ngBusComp Compressor gives you the legendary sound of the Stereo Bus compressor that has been a true companion on countless recordings for 40 years. Often recognized as “mixbus glue”, this particular compression sound have become industry standard. Now, we improve this design creating whole new level of versitality with unbeliveble modern DAW integration – We present ngBusComp – fully analog, dual mono, stereo, mid-side compressor, with digital recall. Channels can be linked/unlinked anytime! It is allowed to have different settings on both channels and still manage those in a relative way! You can work on Mid-Side mix separately for each channel, but if we would like to change ballance of whole track, it is enough to engage “parameter link” and both channels Make Up gain will be adjusted relatively keeping same amount of volume difference!
Along with classic analog compressor You receive most demanded feature in audio industry – TOTAL RECALL. Full plugin control through VST2/VST3/AU/AAX/AAX DSP – makes ngBusComp compatible with most, if not all major DAWs. Total integration with your beloved DAW will change your workflow forever!
