The Softube FET Compressor faithfully recreates one of the most iconic compressors of all time. This compression plugin is renowned for its aggressiveness and its tendency to add distortion to the sound source when driven hard. This compressor loves to be slammed and abused, but even if you're looking for something more gentle, the FET Compressor has you covered. This plugin comes with licenses for VST, VST3, Audio Units, RTAS, AAX Native, and AAX DSP.
The heritage of analog compressors very much showcases the history of electronics in the previous century. It's the deficiencies of the different designs and components that give each unit its unique character, and what started out as technical limitations have now become sought-after sounds. Simply approximating the most apparent features is not enough to capture this uniqueness. It takes a model of great complexity and accuracy to make a digital replica sound like the original with all settings and inputs.
When creating FET Compressor, Softube set out to make the most accurate emulation of the most famous solid state compressor. Instead of modeling individual features and putting them together digitally Softube has modeled the unit in its entirety: input and output stages, gain reduction feedback loops, bias differences of different transistors, etc. It's been by far the hardest project Softube has taken on, but Softube feels that the result speaks for itself. And hopefully it will be easier to do it the next time (yeah right).
