Description
 

FASoft Compressor is a Compressor/Expander/Noise gate DirectX plug-in, with separate settings and processing for left and right channels (when used with stereo tracks).

The Plug-In allows you to define a custom dynamics graph, so even complex dynamics processing can be obtained with a few clicks of the mouse. The main control in the Plug-In property page is the dynamics graph: clicking on it with the left mouse button you can add new nodes to the plot, thus defining custom plots to process your signals with the greatest freedom possible. Smooth transitions (“Soft knees”) between regions (i.e. the beginning of the compression region or the “closing” of the noise gate) can be easily designed adding a few nodes to sweeten the knee of graphs. The output gain control allows for fine adjustment of the output level.

Clicking on LEFT and RIGHT buttons on the bottom left part of the page you can switch between viewing the plug-in settings for the left and right channels. The settings can be adjusted separately for each stereo channel: when used with stereo signals the compressor and noise gate actions are completely independent for each stereo channels. For example a peak in the left channel will trigger the action of the compressor on the left channel but not on the right one. Checking the Lock L&R channels button you can apply the changes to a control’s setting to both channels at the same time.

This plug-in supports mono and stereo 16 bit and 24 bit (32 bit floating point) audio data. Intermediate calculations are performed with 64 bits precision.

Download

The unregistered shareware version mutes the sound output every 10 seconds, displays a nag screen on start-up and has a 40 day trial period. After that time, you should register or stop using the plug-in.
