Description

Very simple compressor. Stereo processing with a link button.

When link is unchecked the left and right sidechains are separate. When check the Left and Right are summed together and sent to BOTH sidechains creating a different compression sound.

The meters can monitor input, gain reduction and output. and when selected the in and out selects a different reaction time to the GR.

Overdrive is added to both channels for harmonic distortion and a very very simple crosstalk that simply feeds a filtered signal of left and right to the opposite channel. I would like to study crosstalk effects more and see if i can find a way to implement it .

I also think I will add a mono processing channel to it with a selection button. If there is a way to completely turn off the stereo processing with this button in and vice-versa to save computer resources I will add this in.

I would also like to add in at least one external sidechain selector but it might be interesting to experiment with two or three and an auto release function.

Finally, I want to add some simple IR convolution to both channels to add an EQ curve that exists in a piece of analog gear.
