Sold my 2500+ (never gelled with it) and got the Elysia mpressor. Tried to desperately to get a similar sound from the Plugin Alliance mpressor. Impossible.

This will probably not be my last piece from Elysia.

An exceptional choice for bass.

Sure. Attached it to the original post. Please make a better attempt than me, I just couldn’t get it right with the plugin :smiley:

I don’t have the mpressor plugin, I have a phobia of compressors without dry/wet param :slight_smile:

yeah the hardware sounds very different compared to the plugin, maybe there’s a gain staging factor?

edit2: looking at the manual there’s clearly a thing with Gain control, it adds saturation, so maybe lowering the input and driving the Gain higher can get fatter results, I’ll wait for a sale and get the plugin, love the alpha and really curious about the mpressor too

the plugin doesn’t sound bad just thinner, maybe I should get it too…

edit: changed my mind, will wait for a sale lol

I recorded the dry version at the same level, just bypassed the hardware mpressor. Then I gained it until I got the same gain reduction as the hardware. The plugin does not react the same way as the hardware. The controls does not match at all, so I tried to match it best I could (I failed).

You can try it out for 14 days free! That’s what I did. Wanted to get e feel of the controls before getting the hardware. Compared it to Vertigo VSC-3 but the mpressor had the sound I was looking for.

ps. I (output) gained almost to the max in the plugin.

As someone with an ob-6 keys and pro 3, I can confirm that they play nicely together. It’s a mean Dave Smith combo.
