Mathew Lane TiCo is a dynamic signal processor plug-in designed to enhance a wide range of audio sources including drums, bass, guitars, synths, vocals, mix busses, and masters. It offers seven distinct compression styles under its 'TiGHTNESS' control and seven unique 'CoNTOUR' character styles, enabling users to elevate their sound effortlessly. The plug-in focuses on delivering modern pop production qualities, making it a reliable choice for shaping and refining audio with precision.

With an intuitive interface, TiCo prioritizes ease of use, allowing musicians and producers to concentrate on their creative process without being overwhelmed by complex settings. Each 'TiGHTNESS' compression style draws inspiration from classic hardware compressors, providing a musical and controlled gain reduction that keeps sounds tight and prominent. Meanwhile, the 'CoNTOUR' section adds tonal color and character through broad, analog-style EQ adjustments, offering flexible sound sculpting options that complement the compression.

TiCo enhances workflow with features like parallel compression via a dry/wet mix control and the ability to switch the processing order, placing the contour section before or after compression for maximum sonic flexibility. It supports multiple plugin formats including AAX, AU, VST2, and VST3, compatible with major digital audio workstations on both Mac and PC. Additional benefits include easy license activation without requiring a dongle and support for dual activations, providing convenience and accessibility for users.
