Characteristics :
Built on hardware:
An accurate emulation of the original Alpha Compressor in collaboration with elysia, providing the most sophisticated and complete set of dynamics controls available as a plugin.

Built-in M/S matrix:
As an alternative to a standard stereo system, you can process the mid and side signals independently of each other, which opens up additional possibilities for increasing the accuracy of the stereo effect.
Forward and Feedback:
The compression type can be individually adjusted for each channel, allowing you to achieve different response characteristics at the touch of a button.
Auto Fast:
The switchable semi-automatic system ensures perfect plunging and recessing based on adjustable values, even when working with difficult material.
Niveau’s EQ provides additional control for fine-tuning tone, enhancing clarity and richness without harshness.
Sidechain Filter:
