Manic Compressor is not only manic, but he also has multiple personalities - six to be precise, each presenting their own unique character.

The Manic Compressor meets the creative needs of mixing engineers in a way no other compressor does.

Its ability to instantly switch between compressor models without changing settings lets you choose the most effective compressor for the job without losing perspective or valuable mixing time.

Along with supreme flexibility, the Manic Compressor is designed with true parallel compression as its core functionality.

It also combines compressor models with two EQ sections, plus a host of innovative features that give you the ability to drive the Manic Compressor as hard as you want, while simultaneously creating new and unique sounds while maintaining musicality.

Once you hear what the Manic Compressor can do, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. Plus, it'll be hard to resist the temptation to revisit old mixes with renewed enthusiasm.

Exclusive features

• Six compressor models designed with parallel compression in mind
• Instantly switch between templates with settings retained
• Separate faders for wet, dry and master levels
• Graphic - Wet/Dry Mix knob allows the wet and dry faders to act as mix knobs rather than separate faders
• Three-position "Beef" switch with Thin, Neutral and Thick settings that alter the compressor's response to an input signal
• Variable knee for subtle compression before threshold is exceeded - "Loud Relief" relaxes transient response during heavy compression of loud program material, allowing for natural dynamic response at extreme settings
• The tone signal app selects which part of your signal chain the tone equalizer affects (wet or dry).
• Mid/Side Panner that can be used as a simple stereo amplifier or correct any mid/side level discrepancies in Mid or Side Manic Compressor mode
• Standard compression controls
  
• Selectable Dual Mono, Stereo, Mid and Side operation
• The drive controls the input gain and adds analog saturation as the gain increases
• Selectable internal or external sidechain
• Sidechain Input Listening
• Pre/Post sets the tone equalizer before or after the compressor
• A/B bench lets you compare settings
