If you're looking for a T-RackS plug-in that can smash your drum room mics and overdrive anything you throw at it, Comprexxor is going to be your new best friend. Did we mention it has a Wet/Dry knob for easy parallel compression and includes Mid-Side?

We caught up with Multi-Platinum Producer/Engineer John Kurzweg (Creed, Puddle of Mudd, Eagle Eye Cherry, Godsmack) who loves Comprexxor and he shared some of his favorite features:

The optical setting has the same magic as the hardware and takes all the guesswork out of vocal compression.

"I've always wished the hardware had a mix control, and having one in the Comprexxor means you can get anything from over the top and in your face to subtle and natural compression that still lifts a track.

With the GB / 1176 'all-in mode,' I can finally get that attitude, tone, and grit at any ratio, and dial in to taste.

"The Dist 2 and 3 settings have always been favorites of mine, but finicky to set right on the original. With Comprexxor's "tone" control, you can get just the right amount you want...

The stereo link/unlink and M/S options are an important and welcome addition for problem-solving modern production techniques.

T-RackS Comprexxor is based on one of the most flexible and creative analog compressors ever made. With eight selectable curves, selectable 2nd or 3rd order harmonic saturation, high-pass/band-pass filters on the sidechain path and much more, Comprexxor delivers endless sonic flexibility, whether that's emulating classic sounds of the past or inspiring new ones for tomorrow.

You can get this behemoth of a compressor to bring out the harmonics or nuke anything you throw at it! Available HERE in IK's online store.
