Compression defines the vibe of a track, yet most plug-ins give you only raw numbers that barely relate to the sound you are trying to shape. smart:comp 3 takes a different approach, enabling you to make compression a natural part of your creative workflow.
smart:comp 3 helps you reach fitting, musical compression results faster. The Compression Matrix reveals the usable dynamic characters of your signal at a glance, while still allowing you to work with all standard compressor parameters whenever you prefer a classic approach. With Group Mode, you can control multiple tracks at once and keep drums, vocals or stems in check from a single window. Spectral Compression, Spectral Ducking and refined Style engines ensure clarity, transparency and energy throughout your mix, whether you are recording, mixing or producing. There is plenty to explore, so dive into the smart:comp 3 Manual — or jump straight into the tutorial video below.
