The CP3V vintage compressor plugin enhances the classic analogue sound of its predecessor with added flexibility in shaping dynamics. It features adjustable attack, release, and ratio controls, allowing precise tailoring of the compression effect. New compression and envelope detector algorithms contribute to its refined response and character, delivering authentic vintage compression tones with modern control.

This compressor processes input signals against a fixed threshold, with the input control driving the amount of compression applied. The output control compensates for gain reduction while introducing subtle saturation, enriching the compressed audio with warmth and presence. Attack times can be finely adjusted from extremely fast settings to slower responses, while release times span a broad range to suit various musical styles and sources.

With four preset ratio settings ranging from moderate compression to limiting, the CP3V covers a wide range of dynamic control needs. It also includes features such as multi-stage analogue modeled compression, VU-style metering for visual feedback, 4x oversampling, and 64-bit internal processing to ensure high-quality sound and performance. These attributes make it an excellent choice for producers seeking a classic compressor with enhanced control and sonic character.
