Drumforge have reduced the price of DF-COMP 2 for a limited time, now only $20.00, (usually $99.00).
DF-COMP 2 expands beyond its predecessor with five dedicated compression modes, each tailored for specific instruments. The Drums mode includes specialized settings for Kick, Snare, Toms, Overheads, Rooms, and Drum Bus to enhance punch and control transients. The Vocals mode provides consistency while maintaining natural dynamics and clarity. Guitar mode adds sustain, preserving attack, while Bass mode keeps your low-end intact. The Master Bus mode adds cohesion, glue, and warmth to your entire mix with subtle but powerful compression.
DF-COMP 2 simplifies compression by offering three distinct compression styles for each mode:
- Soft: Gentle, transparent compression with smooth attack and release settings.
- Medium: Balanced compression that shapes dynamics while maintaining a natural sound.
- Hard: Aggressive compression that enhances punch and tightens transients.
This approach eliminates the need for manual tweaking of attack, release, ratio, and knee parameters, making compression more intuitive and efficient.
DF-COMP 2 includes sidechain capabilities that enhance the mix balance and clarity. External sidechain support provides precise control over the relationship between different elements in your mix. This functionality is essential for creating space and definition in dense arrangements.
With a user interface designed to keep you in your creative flow, DF-COMP 2 improves workflow efficiency, making compression adjustments faster and more accessible. The clean layout presents all essential controls in a logical arrangement, reducing the learning curve and allowing you to focus on the creative aspects of your mix.
Features include:
- 10 Dedicated Compression Modes: Optimized Kick, Snare, Toms, Overheads, Rooms, Drum Bus, Vocals, Guitar, Bass, and Master Bus.
