While the GUI of the whole environment can feel comfortable and intuitive to you, some stock plug-ins might not look as inviting.įor example, Ableton has a fixed structure for stock plug-ins that could feel restrictive to some users used to floating larger windows.Ībleton’s Compressor also doesn’t feature a really detailed notation of the dynamic range in any of its monitoring modes, which might be needed for more accurate implementations. More intuitive, detailed GUI and improved workflowĮach DAW has its own GUI, which reflects on its stock plug-ins as well. For example, Ableton has a Compressor, which is neutral, and then it features the Glue Compressor, which is developed with Cytomics, and it’s a replica of Cytomics Glue, a notorious bus compressor with its own flavor.Įxcept for a few scenarios, these are my go-to compressors for most of my needs.Ī third-party VST might be needed for a number of reasons:
Some DAWs even come with more than one compressor with different styles. In that case, investing in a third-party VST would be a gamble as you wouldn’t be fully aware of the benefits that it could bring you. Stock plugins are good enough, especially if you’re starting out or if you can’t tell the difference between one compressor and another yet. Your DAW’s stock CompressorĪll DAWs, as far as I know, come with at least one stock compressor, which most of the time is suited to accomplish the majority of tasks a compressor could. Even if they’re meant for dynamic control, some compressors also introduce harmonic distortion, which makes sounds feel richer and fuller. In poor words, they’re used when you want to control volume over time. Why you need a compressor?Ĭompression comes into place whenever the dynamics of a sound are inconsistent or need to be controlled. They are the tool for nailing dynamics automatically at a micro and macro level when volume automation would be excessively time and energy-consuming.
