5 of the best and free vst compressor plugins for mac and windows that you can't miss to try - Audio compressors download

After spending looot time in trying freeware audio compressors for vst hosts (like Cubase, Ableton Live , Reaper) that can be really helpful for professional music production, we thought to show you our favorite ones. Of course it's possible that we missed some other free gem. As always the recommendation is to try yourself and judge with your own hears, because what can be good and best for us could not be suitable for your music style. Some of these plug-ins add their own character to the sound, others are more "transparent". We will talk in another article about dedicated limiters and mastering compressors.

	Blockfish	Windows Mac OS 9 Mac OS X	Created by Sascha Eversmeier from Berlin, it is a versatile compressor with countless ways to shape the incoming audio. Unlike many other digital compressors, BLOCKFISH has 'soul'. It likes to bite, but it can be tamed easily once you've learned how to use its potential. Everything is possible: clean, transparent, loud, punchy, silky, subtle, fat. But still with a unique sonic character. Download Blockfish audio compressor from Digitalfishphones.com

Limiter level control (when truned 1 startup). Hard clip mode Limiter include. Download Antress modern compressor from Antress website.
	PC-2	Windows	Conventional compressors are based on peak or rms-level estimation to compute their time-variant gain or attenuation. This property of most compressors often causes undesirable intermodulation distortion and pumping/breathing artefacts. JB PC-2 features a 'psycho-acoustic relevance' mode. Instead of using a peak or rms-level estimation, this mode employes a perceptual loudness model to compute the loudness of the input signal. This perceptual loudness model is combined with advanced attack and release stages that model peripheral adaptation of the human auditory nerve. The result is a very transparent compression characteristic, even with very short attack and release times. On the other hand, the simple, classic compression behavior can be engaged too by simply switching off the complex loudness model. Download VST Psychoacoustic Compressor from Jeroenbreebaart.com
	Reacomp	Windows	Standalone free VST version of the 64 bit audio compressor that comes with Reaper, a very cheap but powerful application for multitrack recording and editing. Download Reacomp from Reaper.fm
