DC8C is one of the most flexible compressors around.

While making a lot of different compression styles possible, it's general nature may be described as: clear, smooth, open, distinct.

The main goal while designing DC8C was to get a very clean compressor action without unwanted and often almost inevitable artifacts/distortion. This way you can achieve almost invisible compression for your most demanding mastering sessions, when you want to avoid coloration.

If you aim for color you can choose between two saturation models.

From opto-style, peak compression, external side-chaining, RMS compression, Feedback, Feedforward compression (and everything in-between) to negative ratios, zero latency brick-wall limiting, from snappy transient treatment to smooth transient rounding - everything is possible.

Ultra clean peak compressor/limiter with punchy attack, musical release, and optional lookahead smoothing, for tracks or busses. Zero/low latency and low CPU.

■ Fast or same-sample attack times that never sound "clicky", even in zero latency mode

■ Even cleaner than Fircomp 1. Both can be used side-by-side

■ Innovative digital envelope detection allows for much lower distortion than typical peak compressors, without overshoot or lag

■ Optional lookahead FIR gain smoothing for an even cleaner sound
