smart:comp

What is smart:comp?

smart:comp finds the parameters for balanced compression results in just a few seconds and ensures unparalleled transparency through selective frequency processing.

• Tonal and dynamic balance with spectral compression
• Smart parameterization with a single click
• Sidechain mode with frequency-dependent lowering

Resources

• Balance makes a difference

Get the best out of your track

Spectral compression aims to provide the best possible definition and maximum transparency range. By continuously analyzing the input signal over 2000 bands, smart:comp acts as an ultra-high resolution intelligent multiband compressor that dynamically smooths out tonal imbalances. After experiencing your power, you wouldn't want to lose.

Smart:comp spectral compression only applies compression where it is really needed and therefore ensures consistent tonal and dynamic balance at all times. Use the feature to clear tracks in the mixing phase or to put the final touches on the mix when mastering.

• Speed and accuracy - with AI technology

Intelligent compression parameterization in seconds

smart:comp significantly accelerates the compression task and delivers results more accurately than ever before. With just one click, the plug-in analyzes the received audio signal and sets specific parameters that result in balanced compression - all with the familiar appearance and handling of a single-band compressor.

Behind the intuitive smart:comp interface, the smart engine is executed, an AI-based, content-aware system designed based on psychoacoustic principles, as well as extensive practical mixing experience. While the plug-in helps a lot in creating a fast workflow when the smart engine is activated, you keep track of the end result and can access and adjust all essential parameters.

• A gentle blend

Give your sidechain the space you need

Frequency-dependent deviation in side chain mode perfectly blends signals that compete for attention in the same spectral regions. Smart:comp 'listens' to potential spectral conflicts and dynamically reduces the affected frequency regions of the input signal.

Smart:comp frequency-dependent ducking ensures that the range of your choice remains under the spotlight of a mix. If you want to use smart:comp to reduce broadband, just turn off spectral reduction.
