We have just updated Multicomp Plus MK2 our versatile visual compressor
We are excited to announce the release of HoRNet Multicomp Plus MK2, our advanced and highly versatile visual compressor designed to meet all your mixing and audio processing needs. With this latest update, Multicomp Plus MK2 introduces five different compression models that offer a wide range of tonal possibilities for both analog warmth and dynamic control. Whether you’re working with vocals, drums, or full mixes, this plugin is a perfect addition to your toolkit.
HoRNet Multicomp Plus MK2 is a high-quality compressor that gives you access to five distinct compression models. The VCA, OPTO, FET, Console4K, and VCA160 models all bring their unique characteristics to the table, allowing you to shape your sound in a variety of ways. Additionally, the plugin includes an expander based on the VCA model, making it even more versatile.
VCA Model: Provides a dry and clean compression with excellent control over dynamic range.
OPTO Model: Inspired by classic optical compressors, this model provides smooth and musical compression, ideal for more transparent processing.
FET Model: Known for its aggressive and fat compression, it’s perfect for adding punch and character to drums and guitars.
Console4K Model: Based on classic VCA designs, this model delivers the iconic sound of analog consoles, adding a touch of warmth and punch.
VCA160 Model: Another VCA-based model that brings a different flavor of compression, perfect for modern and vintage vibes alike.
Each model is designed to handle different types of audio material, and now, with the re-design of the OPTO model, the emulation is even more faithful to the classic optical compressors of the past.
One of the standout features of Multicomp Plus MK2 is its ability to provide analog warmth and texture, making it an excellent choice for those who want to bring that vintage sound into their digital mixes. Each compression model offers a unique saturation that can be easily adjusted to fit your needs. The analog emulation engine used in Multicomp Plus MK2 is the same as the one found in our AnalogStage plugin, which is known for its high-quality simulations of analog circuits. To further enhance this, the plugin includes an input transformer model, which adds even more character to your sound.
For those who are not fond of the hiss that sometimes comes with analog emulations, Multicomp Plus MK2 gives you the option to turn off this feature, ensuring you can tailor the sound to your preferences.
A major highlight of the Multicomp Plus MK2 is its visual display, which gives you complete control over your compression process. The waveform display shows the input and output signals clearly, allowing you to monitor exactly what’s happening with your audio. The visual gain reduction meter also provides real-time feedback on how much compression is being applied.
For more precise monitoring, we’ve included the RealGR meter. This is an advanced feature that allows you to track gain reduction in real-time and includes a peak hold function, which holds the maximum value of gain reduction for easier monitoring of loud signals.
Switching between compression models is seamless and easy with Multicomp Plus MK2. The internal makeup gain algorithm ensures smooth transitions between models without any noticeable loudness changes. This makes it much easier for you to switch from one compression model to another while maintaining a consistent sound level.
Moreover, the plugin features an auto threshold function that automatically adjusts the threshold to reach the desired level of gain reduction. This automatic adjustment saves time and streamlines your workflow, allowing you to focus more on the creative aspects of mixing rather than manual adjustments.
In addition, Multicomp Plus MK2 supports sidechain inputs, giving you even more flexibility when shaping your sound. The high-pass and low-pass filters available (ranging from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz) make it easy to control how the compressor responds to different frequency ranges, further enhancing the plugin’s capabilities.
To ensure that the sound quality is as pristine as possible, Multicomp Plus MK2 features 2x or 4x oversampling to reduce aliasing distortion. The auto oversampling feature optimizes the sampling rate depending on the model being used, ensuring the best quality at all times. Whether you’re working with complex multi-layered tracks or single instruments, the oversampling feature helps keep the sound clean and detailed.
The Dry/Wet knob allows you to use parallel compression easily, giving you the option to blend the compressed signal with the original unprocessed audio. This makes it simple to add punch and presence without losing the natural dynamics of your tracks.
Furthermore, the adaptive makeup gain feature automatically adjusts the wet signal level, ensuring that your audio maintains the correct balance throughout the processing chain.
The latest update, version 2.0.5, includes several important fixes and enhancements:
Auto-disable function: The auto threshold, input, and output gain settings are now automatically disabled when playback stops, preventing unwanted changes in settings when not in use.
Bug fixes: We’ve resolved an issue where parameters were behaving inconsistently in Ableton Live 10 when using the VST3 version of the plugin.
This update is free for existing owners of the plugin and can be easily downloaded from your user area on our website.
HoRNet Multicomp Plus MK2 is a powerful, versatile, and user-friendly tool for any music producer or engineer looking to add high-quality compression and analog warmth to their tracks. With its five different compression models, seamless model switching, and real-time visual monitoring, it offers everything you need to take your mixes to the next level. The addition of auto threshold, parallel compression, and advanced oversampling ensures that you get the best performance possible.
