COMP 160 THREE CLASSIC COMPRESSORS, ONE PLUG-IN DISCOVER COMP 160 The Gem Comp 160 is a revolutionary emulation of three distinct versions of the legendary 160 VCA compressor — faithfully capturing each version’s distinct tone, response, and character: VU - The original version delivering a rich, punchy analog character with the unmistakable feel that made the 160 a studio staple. With VU-style metering and a classic control layout, this is the father of all VCA compressors. XT - Warmer and more harmonically dense, with enhanced low-frequency presence and a fuller bottom end. The XT Version offers a smoother, more versatile tone compared to the VU. It delivers a richer low end and a great harmonic structure, thanks to the optional transformer installed in the reference model. The XT version also features the Overeasy control, that enables the soft-knee compression curve. A - The A version is a more modern and transparent evolution of the 160, featuring a slightly faster response time and tighter control. Its snappy attack parameter is useful for taming sharp transients. The A version also has a cleaner sound and wider frequency response, making this version ideal for a variety of applications. BEYOND THE ORIGINAL HARDWARE Within a single instance of the Gem Comp 160, you can select which version will work for your track. And like all plug-ins in the Gem series, the Gem Comp 160 goes beyond the capabilities of the original units with powerful modern features: Built-in Mid-Side Processing Built-in Parallel Compression User-controllable harmonic generation amount LF sensitivity User-selectable Ultra Oversampling mode Multilevel undo-redo A/B Comparison Scribble Strips: take notes anywhere on the plugin panel Meter Calibration: calibrate the VU meters at 4 different sensibilities Gem Comp 160 combines the unmistakable punch of a classic VCA compressor with the flexibility and precision required by modern productions.
