HYPE embodies high-end mixing hardware, offering dynamic processing tools for compression, harmonics, and stereo width adjustment. It transcends analog limits with over-the-top compression and groundbreaking harmonic overtones.
Learn Upwards Compression step by step: add clarity, presence, and dynamics to your mixes with FabFilter, OTT, and advanced mixing/mastering techniques. Join producer and educator Larry Holcombe for a focused video course on upwards compression, one of the most powerful, yet often misunderstood, mixing and mastering techniques. Unlike standard compression, which tames peaks, upwards compression raises the quiet details, bringing subtle textures and nuances to the forefront while preserving transients and punch. Through practical, real-world examples, Larry demonstrates how this approach can add depth, excitement, and balance to any mix. These upwards compression videos are designed for users new to the concept of upwards compression. This compression course begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of upwards compression, including how it works and why it differs from traditional downward compression. Using a classic DnB funk break, Larry illustrates how lifting quieter elements makes grooves feel more alive and detailed.
Monster 4000 is an essential mixing tool, modelled after the well-known console compressor used as a mixing “glue”. Now with extra saturation. Add more punch, make the record tighter, smooth out the mix – it handles all of that. External sidechain gives you even more flexibility, while dual-mono feature gives you more control. It’s that final something needed for every recording.
Ducking, or sidechain compression, is one of the defining effects of modern music. From classic house to modern EDM, tracks by Daft Punk, Noisia and Eric Prydz ooze that pumping, ducking effect. So, whether you’re producing pumping house or broken beats, Duck delivers in seconds. Duck makes it easy to design a custom volume shape that repeats at a speed and depth of your choice, or use one of 58 presets to find new and inspiring effects. As well as sidechain compression Duck is capable of trance-gating, tremolo and any other volume effect you can think of. For more control, enable split band mode and adjust the separate low and high frequency controls. And Duck can be triggered with audio from a sidechain input or by MIDI notes, making it easier than ever for hip-hop and bass music producers.

A simple, step by step guide to understanding compression – what it is, how it works, and how to use it to shape and transform the sound of your tracks. How many times have you found yourself randomly tweaking some compressor, not really sure whether you’re actually making the sound better or worse?? (I know, I’ve been there!) The problem is, there’s just so many controls to think about! – Threshold, ratio, attack, release, knee, etc. – it can quickly get very frustrating. If you can relate to any of this at all, I think this program will really help you. I’m going to take you step by step through each of these controls, show you exactly how to set them up, and give you practice sessions for you to model and learn from what I’m doing.
