Sir
Elliot releases CP-1 Compressor 16th
June 2010
Sir Elliot has released
CP-1 Compressor, a free compressor effect
plug-in for Windows.
The concept behind this design is
fast responding with very minimal artefacts, which
is common with many offering very fast
attack/release times.
Specifications
Compression: -1 to –62 dB
Attack: 1 to 40 Microseconds (200
Nanoseconds @ 0.00000 setting)
Release: 81 Milliseconds to 1.5
Seconds (3.5 seconds metered version)
Ratio: 0.5:1 to 22.40:1
Due to the fixed delay settings this
compressor is more suited for mastering. I’ve taken
the liberty to configure the CP-1 so the host will
be able to compensate the latency it offers.
It is optimised for 96 kHz however,
will operate on 44100 kHz.
The non-metered version offers less
CPU use and faster loading time than the metered
version.
Here is a video demonstration if you
would like to hear the tonal characteristics of the
CP-1 Compressor.
