Product Description

This library is now available in 4 sample rates- 44.1khz, 48khz, 88.2khz, and 96khz.

A recent skin update now allows for switching between the lite, full, SHQ programs by clicking the buttons on the skin, for the Nebula 4 version. This was previously only possible with the N3 skins. Having that ability really completes this compressor and makes using and switching between the quality options a breeze.

These programs are based on a stereo pair of compressors which are essentially remakes (made by the same company) of the channel compressors found in the famous 4k mixing desks. Two units were sampled, in a stereo setup. Hard and soft knee modes were both captured and recreated for use with Nebula. There’s also a special bonus ‘knee select’ set of programs that allow you to transition between soft and hard knees (not possible with the hardware). As usual with my compressors, the attack and release were recreated as closely as possible, with the time settings then being extended beyond what the hardware allows.

Great for adding its own very particular crunch to kicks and snares and just about anything else! Up to well over 30dB of compression is possible with the hard knee mode, and around 28dB with the soft knee. There’s also a ‘pass-through’ program that works like the typical Nebula preamp style programs, useful for getting some tone of the hardware without any compression. Lastly, there are some really nice skins by JPN!

Check out this video showing off the compression, generously produced by Max (who also helped with testing the programs, thanks Max!)!

Manual: You can take a look at the manual here!

All these demos start with the dry clip, then it repeats a few times, having been compressed with various different settings.

A drum machine/sample beat mix. Each element was compressed separately, and each time you hear it, different settings are being used with all the compressor settings, including switching between hard and soft knee modes.

A drum mix. This time real drums, and the entire mix is compressed together (so the compressor was used like a bus comp). I really just did this to give you some idea of what the compression actually sounds like, not really trying to produce 'good results'. That's why a couple of them are pretty smashed.

Vocal clip.

Here only the saxophone/horn mix is being compressed (starting the 2nd time you hear it). Everything else isn't.
