Anyone get this yet? It's a plugin that makes your music sound sooo good..

It's a 30 day trial, but all you have to do is turn your clock back to extend it.

How, and what, exactly, does it do? and whats it a plugin for?
Details, man

Low levels are intelligently raised and loud signals are kept under control, all in real-time. Think of it as cruise control for your tunes and turbo drive for your speakers.

So it's a compressor filter? No thanks. Compression is for radio and voice-overs, nothing more.

Conc conc conc, trying so hard to sound intelligent by using all those technical words. Unfortunately you got the theory wrong.


raised and loud signals are kept under control: that's a compressor filter


Low levels are intelligently raised: that's an amplifier


Sooo newb plz, shut up!

Compression is often used to make music sound louder without increasing its peak amplitude. Instead, it boosts the perceived loudness by increasing the root mean square volume by way of the make up gain that can be applied after compression takes place (compression only reduces the volume of a signal). The peak signals and the non-peak signals become more similar in amplitude after compression and the non-peak signals become relatively louder through the make up gain that is applied to the entire signal after compression. In other words, the peak of a sound wave of, say, a drum hit may be at roughly the same amplitude (because of make up gain), but the body of the sound is louder relative to the peak as the sound decays than it would be without compression. This reduction of the dynamics makes the drum sound louder even though its peak may be at is at the same dynamic level it was before compression and make up gain were applied. It is common to compress rock music or pop music heavily to make it sound louder without introducing undesirable distortion that would be introduced by exceeding the dynamic limits of a reproduction device or medium. Compression is used extensively in broadcasting to boost the perceived volume of the sound track while keeping it within strict limits (broadcasters in most countries have legal limits on instantaneous peak volume they may broadcast). Normally these limits are met by permanently inserted hardware in the on-air chain (see section Multiband compression above).

Most television commercials are compressed heavily in order to achieve near-maximum perceived loudness while staying within permissible limits.

Compression can also be used on instrument sounds to create effects not-primarily focused on boosting loudness. For instance, drum and cymbal sounds tend to decay quickly, but a compressor can make the sound appear to have a more sustained tail. Guitar sounds are often compressed in order to obtain a fuller, more sustained sound.

Compression is also often used in music production to make performances more consistent in dynamic range so that they "sit" in the mix of other instruments better and maintain consistent attention from the listener. Vocal performances in rock music or pop music are usually compressed in order to make them stand out from the surrounding instruments.

I can offer something else for foot-sized mouth insertion.

HOHOHO lol that picture is quality.

i can almost smell the enjoyment being had out of photoshopping those pictures

Photoshop's totally fun. It's my anti-drug.
