Tame harsh signals with sidechains and saturation Or, try the “British” mode for fast and furious “all buttons in” compression that provides the memorable character of iconic pumping and breathing effects heard on countless major releases. Tailor its tone further with “DIST” modes that add 2nd or 3rd order harmonics for tube or tape-like drive. On the Xtressor, each of the ratios is like its own compressor, with unique attack, release and knee characteristics. Known for its speed, versatility, and attitude, it’s a must-have for crushing drum busses, squeezing kicks and basses, controlling acoustic guitars, and digging in hard with seriously satisfying vocal compression. The Xtressor is a faithful emulation of one of the most beloved and most popular hardware compressors of the modern era.
