It is intended for \u003cstrong\u003emastering\u003c\/strong\u003e uses (gluing a mix, stabilizing peaks, controlling low-end energy, gaining density without masking the high frequencies) as well as for \u003cstrong\u003emixing\u003c\/strong\u003e via the MicroComp version, ideal on buses (drums, instruments, mix bus) or tracks when a clean, effective, and quick-to-adjust result is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMain Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTransparency and control at a high level of demand\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePSP MasterComp relies on \u003cstrong\u003e64-bit double precision\u003c\/strong\u003e processing and \u003cstrong\u003edouble-sampled FAT\u003c\/strong\u003e processing to preserve details, stereo depth, and clarity, even when compression becomes energetic. This approach allows working at \u003cstrong\u003ehigh sample rates\u003c\/strong\u003e while maintaining a sense of clear high frequencies and a stable low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTwo workflows: mastering and mixing\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe installer includes \u003cstrong\u003ePSP MasterComp\u003c\/strong\u003e (designed for mastering compression and expansion) and \u003cstrong\u003ePSP MicroComp\u003c\/strong\u003e (designed for mixing). MicroComp offers a more direct control interface, a \u003cstrong\u003eCPU-optimized\u003c\/strong\u003e algorithm, and settings oriented towards \"bus\/track\" use to save time without sacrificing quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eExtended dynamic control: compression, expansion, and intelligent settings\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether to \u003cstrong\u003econtrol\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003erevitalize\u003c\/strong\u003e dynamics, MasterComp and MicroComp handle both \u003cstrong\u003ecompression\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eexpansion above the threshold\u003c\/strong\u003e. You can enhance impact, bring life back to attacks, or conversely smooth out an overly aggressive program. \u003cstrong\u003eAutomatic attack and release times\u003c\/strong\u003e (intelligent options) facilitate achieving a musical behavior, particularly useful on a full mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSidechain, linking, and advanced stereo processing\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo better control the compressor's reaction, the plugin offers \u003cstrong\u003esidechain filtering\u003c\/strong\u003e as well as \u003cstrong\u003echannel linking\u003c\/strong\u003e options, useful for stabilizing the center, maintaining a coherent stereo image, and preventing the low end from triggering excessive compression. Selectable channel processing (\u003cstrong\u003eMid, Side, Left, Right, Stereo\u003c\/strong\u003e) provides fine control to correct imbalance, sculpt the space, or tighten a mix without crushing its amplitude.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDry\/wet mix, limiter, and level meters\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMix control\u003c\/strong\u003e allows simple parallel blending (between processed and direct signals) to preserve natural transients while gaining density. A high-quality optional \u003cstrong\u003ebrickwall limiter\u003c\/strong\u003e is available on output with \u003cstrong\u003eautomatic release\u003c\/strong\u003e to secure the final level. The advanced \u003cstrong\u003ePPM\/VU meters\u003c\/strong\u003e offer contextual readings and adjustable parameters, useful for precisely calibrating level and dynamic action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eFull software\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownloadable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003emacOS 10.14 to macOS 14 Sonoma\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWindows\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eWindows 10 to Windows 11\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePSP MasterComp\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003emastering-oriented compression and expansion\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePSP MicroComp\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eoptimized version for mixing (bus and tracks)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcessing modes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eMid, Side, Left, Right, Stereo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PSP Audioware","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361772720403,"sku":"398501","price":196.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/04592a83d5f71f879a2d958c1ab50e818fc95c93_PSP_1131427.jpg?v=1788277923","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/psp-audioware-mastercomp-398501","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
