About 'Draw Her'

 

Inspired by the Drawmer 1968 ME, this compressor preset can be subtle as well as heavily character driven. In its more driven and/or extreme settings, it can round out a signal by smoothing high's but more importantly add weight and warmth to a signal. This is a unique compressor without threshold control and I implemented a 'Soft' or 'Hard' knee parameter. The Knee parameter controls the character of the compression. For harder, darker, compacting sounds pull the Knee down. The Drive will control harmonic color, dominating in second even order harmonics which will really add to the 'meatiness' when cranked up. Also listen to make sure you didn't go too far!

I created audio examples of 2 instrument tracks I think this compressor is nice on. It tames really low frequencies/subs and 'beefs' up low/low-mid frequencies nicely giving a foward sounding, warmer texture. So one can think snares, toms, guitars, vocals. So I used it on a snare in a drum mix and heavy electric guitar.

The Drive parameter also adds to the 'meatiness' of the compression. The compressor can also be driven harder initially by the Gain slider in Nebula. Experiment for the best sound.
