Plugin Boutique are offering 49% off Smoov and Schalp compressors by Caelum Audio. Each is now only £7.50 / $10.01, (usually £14.99 / $20.00). The offers end May 31st.
Smoov
Is a chaotic track starting to get to you? Maybe you should make it a little more “Smoov”.
Smoov is a soft, clean and transparent sounding program-dependent compressor. It takes inspiration from hardware compressors of the past with a focus on peak detection, meaning that it can quickly and effortlessly react to incoming signals and blend them in with the surrounding audio field.
When a busy track needs taming, Smoov softly settles your tracks.
The compressor uses a program-dependent envelope influenced by old hardware making the compression sound smooth and dynamic. The peak detection means that Smoov detects the actual amplitude of a signal, resulting in an extremely fast response to tame and control anything that is thrown at it.
You’ve got a big, groovy track you think you’re happy with, but you have to ask yourself… “Is it Smoov?”
Features include:
- Smooth and transparent compression.
- Program dependent compression – attack and release settings are automatic.
- 4 ratio styles: expansion and gating, standard compression, infinite limiting compression and negative over-compression.
- Optional external side-chain input.
- Sidechain filtering.
- Inspired by old hardware.
Schlap
If you want your tracks to be energetic, in-your-face and bold, make ’em “Schlap”.
Schlap is a characterful, colourful and aggressive sounding program-dependent compressor. It takes inspiration from hardware RMS compressors of the past and evolves them into a modern setting.
The compressor uses a program-dependent attack and release influenced by old hardware making the compression sound characterful and dynamic.
The RMS detection means that Schlap detects the average loudness of a signal, resulting in sudden short peaks being uncompressed so that they can attack hard and sound heavy hitting. Also inherently in RMS detection, there is a slight delay in compression which allows the initial, early transients to sneak through uncompressed so they keep their punch.
You’ve got a safe, controlled track you think you’re happy with, but you have to ask yourself… “Does it Schlap?”
Features include:
- Aggressive, in your face compression.
- Program dependent – attack and release settings are automatic.
- 4 ratio styles: expansion and gating, standard compression, infinite limiting compression and negative over-compression.
- Optional external side-chain input.
- Sidechain filtering.
- Inspired by old hardware.
Both plugins are available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX).
