PSP MixPressor2 is part of the PSP MixPack2, a collection of high-resolution audio processors designed to enhance the clarity and warmth of digital recordings. Unlike plugins modeled after specific hardware, these processors are crafted to capture the essence of various analog circuits, providing tools that reduce the harshness and sterility often found in digital audio. Utilizing 64-bit double precision floating point processing and supporting sample rates up to 192kHz, PSP MixPressor2 ensures high fidelity and precision in dynamic control.

This compressor combines characteristics inspired by valve and opto-electronic designs with modern compression techniques, making it suitable for both individual tracks and full mixes. Its side-chain functionality includes a flexible filter that shapes the compressor's response, enabling uses such as de-essing or minimizing pumping effects caused by kick drums. The compressor offers adjustable knee settings, selectable peak or RMS detection, and an output stage that can act as a brick wall limiter or introduce soft saturation to maintain peak integrity.

PSP MixPressor2 pairs seamlessly with PSP MixSaturator2, allowing users to create rich, analog-inspired soundscapes by combining subtle compression and saturation effects. Whether placing the compressor before or after the saturator in the signal chain, this combination helps achieve a cohesive, polished mix reminiscent of expensive analog gear. PSP MixPressor2 is one of six processors in the MixPack2 suite, which also includes tools for bass, treble, gating, and synchronization, providing a comprehensive set for refining digital audio productions.
