top-secret electronic battle weapon compressor finally works

WARNING RIDICULOUS AMOUNTS OF HARMONICS/DENSITY/LOUDNESS WAR/GRATUITOUS DANK AHEAD (make sure volume is turned low)

i'm kinda confused. Do you mean those are normal high hats that are so compressed they feedback harmonics and stuff?

no they're like flanged to fuck but digitally

this is a much better example, I put the compressor first in the signal path. I swear it degrades perfectly into pink noise when saturated

here is the old version

drum machine is one of those zoom ones with 200 samples I think. synths are all digital in buzz

Coolness. So ah.... how do I get this compressor? Is it a Reaper thingy?

I dunno if I'm gonna release it, I put a lot of time into figuring this thing out and it's kinda my trump card as far as lushshit

so you came up with your own unique compressor algorithm?

imo definitely release, make it an iOS/VST/AudioUnit, put a donk on it and sell it

can we see its INTERFACE

it's kinda just moving bezier curves around. what's actually going on under the hood can really be displayed in 2d lol

can't

lemme put it this way like imagine alien quaternion taffy curves but applied to compression

the surprise was finding it actually sounds ok

Understand.

From your description (manipulation of bezier curves) and the type of saturation I can hear from the demos it sounds very much like a waveshaper -

there's saturation on the tracks too, but the actual compressor is different. There are compressors that use curves like a waveshaper

in that case though it's the /target/ volume, not an immediate volume change

the idea is it makes the track not sound like total crap when you /do/ saturate it

warning extremes of bass/play at low volume and slowly bring volume up
