Classic VCA, expanded
Knee
HARD gives direct compression; SOFT eases into gain reduction for gentler control around the threshold.
DC
Shape how the compressor lets go, from smoother recovery to more energetic movement. DC changes the release character, not simply its time.
Trafos
Input and output transformer emulations add weight, rounding and harmonic texture before and after compression.

FAQ
VCA is a fast, characterful VCA-style compressor built for punch, glue, and control without losing energy. At its core, it delivers classic ratio-driven compression with extended timing, stereo or dual mono operation, Classic and Vintage circuit modes, soft or hard knee behaviour, and a rare ALL mode for more explosive, saturated response. Around that, it adds two distinct harmonic colour paths, input and output transformer stages, sidechain filtering, parallel mix, DC Threshold for deeper release shaping, and a final limiter for controlled output finishing.
We provide VST3, Audio Unit, and AAX formats for MacOS, VST3 and AAX for Windows. Any DAW that supports these formats will work with them, for example: Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, Cubase, Studio One, FL Studio, Reaper.
VCA is fully native for Apple Silicon chips (M1, M2, M3 etc) as well as Intel Macs. No Rosetta required, but it’s also compatible with Rosetta.
