It will allow you to process sound for an hour which is very generous, imo. Settings are not saved in projects, though. But does render!

Absolutely superb compressor, i don't think i have heard much/any better.

Try this:

[1] Select preset 'ACDC' over a drum-submix/full mix
[2] Press 'Recall' to load the preset *Important*
[3] Listen!


Tech Info:

More details



Solera implements 4 different detectors and envelop generators in parallel and simultaneously :
compressor, de-compressor, expander and de-expander which can all be independently switched
on or off and implement an activity display next to their controls.
For each you can set the threshold, the ratio and a knee.In addition,
here are some of the key features that make our plug-in the best available
for dynamic processing in the digital domain :



* An analog like metering. RMS values are more useful than dB-fs when setting a dynamic processor.

* The "Angel's Share" parameter takes into account the signal for intelligent relaxation of the compressor action.

* The "Hysteresis" parameter allows compressing and de-compressing, independently of the sound level and can be mixed with the standard compression scheme.

* The Auto Release features an unique algorithm that avoids typical pumping effect.

* A delay line can be inserted in the signal path to produce a null attack time.

* The A/B Compare and Morphing section enables ultra fast and precise operations.

Interface looks really pollished and pretty, but I kinda wonder if you'd get lost in all the knobs and stuff. Usuaully I find the best plugins are the simple ones.

You don't have to use all the knobs. But i know where you are coming from. I think the presets alone with a little tweakage are a nice basis to start from. Give it a whirl.

Sure will :)
