Manic Compressor was designed from the ground up to be more than just a compressor. It was designed to unleash the power of parallel compression without requiring complex routing in your DAW.

Even with 6 different compressor modes and a comprehensive parallel routing setup, Manic Compressor uses an intuitive interface to get much more power out of your compressor than ever before.

Maximum parallel power

Parallel compression is a key ingredient that the best mixers have used for years, but until now, it has always required complex routing and greater clutter in your mixing project to be able to use it on every track. Many compressors have a mix knob to combine the compressed signal with the dry signal, but we have found that this simply does not provide enough control to truly harness the vast power of parallel compression.

With individual wet and dry faders, along with an intuitive but powerful EQ section, it won't take long to realize everything you have been missing. After using Manic Compressor in our projects, we realized that we had missed out on a whole new world that we didn't even know existed with compression.

6 different compressors

Even with so many good compressors available, we find that it is cumbersome to switch between different compressors with different settings trying to find the exact match for your track. With Manic Compressor, you can quickly switch between 6 different compressors without having to match the settings.

Because Manic Compressor was designed from scratch to be used in parallel, we were able to create some compressor modes that really shine in parallel.

Built for abuse

With the innovative parallel design of Manic Compressor and Loudness Relief, this compressor was built to be abused. Subtle compression is a thing of the past (unless you want it, of course). Manic Compressor allows you to crank your settings to the max and then relax them with its exclusive Loudness Relief control, which smooths out compression artifacts even under a very heavy load.
