Its name is Golden Compressor | GCO-1 and it is modeled on high-end analog
compressors. But rather than modeling one vintage compressor using several different
techniques, many high-end analog compressors went into the GCO-1. This includes
types such as “Classic” (for warming), “Smooth 1&2”
(lower distortion), “Opto” (emulating opto-coupled vintage gear)
and “Pumping” (for those pumping dance rhythms).
The GCO-1 has program dependent attack and release
times to avoid a pumping effect (the amount can of course be adjusted to zero
when pumping effect is desired). Frequency dependent compression filters remove
low frequency and DC interference, compression curve adjustments, program dependency,
and different stereo link options are just some of the extra features to tweak
this compressor into a desired sound and character.
Though this is an advanced plugin, it is very easy to use. This is because
of the clean GUI design that separates the well-known parameters such as Threshold,
Gain, Ratio, Attack and Release from the special parameters.
As with the other members of the Gold Series, this plugin uses 64Bit Processing,
supports up to192kHz sampling rate, and has no latency. The no latency feature
allows this plugin to be used live.
With the GCO-1, your need for analog compressors is probably covered. It can
sound like many of the most popular compressors; together with the ones you
can “invent” your self.
And the price can’t be beaten! Normal price is only $118.00 but it will
be sold for as little as $94.40 with an introduction discount until July 18,
2004.
