Overview

Clean control to coloured glue.

Presswerk is a versatile dynamics processor that pairs the warmth of classic hardware compressors with modern, digital-only tools. Task-focused views for vocals, drums, bus and mastering sit over a deep engine offering feed-forward, feedback and interactive detection. Saturation, parallel mixing, mid/side processing and a dual phase rotator make it as much a tone shaper as a compressor.

Highlights

Six task views: Easy, Vocal, Drum, Bus, M/S and Limiter
Feed-forward, feedback or interactive detection topologies
Built-in saturation, before or after compression
Parallel compression via dry/wet mixing
Flexible internal sidechain with filters and bipolar delay
Independent mid/side processing
Dual phase rotator for broadcast-style shaping
Detailed metering across all modes
