Deft Compressor

About

Deft Compressor is a dynamics plugin by Voxengo. Deft Compressor is an audio signal compressor for sound and music production. Its timing function closely resembles an S-curve on both the attack and release stages. It can be used on vocals, drums, guitars and other instruments, as well as on mix groups and full mixes.

What it sounds like

The S-curve timing gives compression that sounds slim and slick, with an intelligibility enhancement effect. A vintage mode produces a warm, gently saturated sound reminiscent of analog tube compressors, able to overdrive the output.
