Stagecraft is offering a limited number of free licenses for its Compressor plugin (normally priced at $50). At the moment of writing this article, there were 800 keys remaining; producers are encouraged to act quickly to claim a license. Compatible with VST3, AU, and AAX formats for Mac and PC, this plugin brings powerful compression features to your DAW without the usual cost.
Designed to compete with full-featured premium compressors, the Stagecraft Compressor is built with flexibility in mind. It supports both downward and upward compression and expansion, making it far more than a standard compressor.
Versatile Compression and Sound Shaping
You can use the plugin for limiting, gating, vocal shaping, noise control, and pump effects. It also supports mid-side, sidechain, and parallel compression setups, giving users advanced control over their dynamics. Smooth out a mix or create genre-defining movement, the Stagecraft Compressor plugin adapts to a wide range of production needs.
One of its standout features is intelligent quantization, which allows for easy setup of bass-triggered swells and rhythmic pumping, a go-to technique in modern dance music.
Built-In Flexibility and Free Updates
Additional features include automation, shareable presets, as well as a preset library that is continuously updated. As with all Stagecraft plugins, updates are free, and users can try the full plugin for 30 days before needing to activate it with a serial.
