What Producers Say
The Vocal Compression Engine
One-Knob Vocal Squeeze
FET compression inspired by the legendary 1176 — the most recorded vocal compressor in history. The Squeeze knob gives you the perfect vocal compression with a single control. Gentle for ballads, aggressive for rap, and everything in between. The AI engine adjusts attack and release to match vocal dynamics in real time.
4 Vocal Character Modes
Clean: Transparent vocal leveling — hear every word without coloration. Tape: Warm, intimate vocal tone with gentle saturation. Tube: Rich vintage presence — like tracking through a classic Neve channel. Hard: Aggressive vocal punch for rap, rock, and metal vocals. Each mode reshapes the compression character for your genre.
MAGIC Button
One click activates the vocal finishing chain: presence boost for clarity, air enhancement for sparkle, and parallel compression for density. Turns raw vocal recordings into radio-ready tracks. Works on lead vocals, backing vocals, vocal buses, and spoken word.
Smart Focus (De-Esser)
Automatic sibilance and resonance suppression built right in. Smart Focus identifies and tames harsh 's', 't', and 'ch' sounds without dulling the vocal. Also handles boxiness (300-500Hz) and nasal resonances. No separate de-esser plugin needed — it's all built into SQUEEZOR.
Vocal Weight Control
Adds chest resonance and body to thin vocals. Perfect for adding warmth to bright condenser microphones, boosting male vocal presence, or giving female vocals fullness. Works as parallel low-end processing — completely independent from the main compression.
Full-Area VU Meter
Stunning full-area VU meter with real-time gain reduction display. See exactly how much compression is being applied to your vocals. Essential for learning proper vocal gain staging and ensuring consistent vocal levels throughout a song.
