Critic Reviews

Stereo Buss Compressor VST Plugin By Minimal System Group Is Now Free - Bedroom Producers Blog

bedroomproducersblog.com

The Minimal System Group Stereo Buss Compressor offers a polished GUI and a chance to model classic analogue buss compression for free. However, the reputation of the developer’s plugins is questioned due to past reliability issues and an underwhelming sound experience. While the compressor is considered average compared to other free alternatives, its zero cost makes it a risk-free option to explore.

a freeware SSL style bus compressor

This is another SSL bus compressor. But its free for those of you on a budget so chek it out guys. It behaves pretty right. Its cleaner sounding than Cytomic's glue to my ear but like the glue its got an expanded functionality compared with a real one or like a waves emulation that's slavish. Its not as expanded as the glue though. This is great for working fast, especially when you want less artifacts than Cytomic has. I sue this all the time on sub groups and mix bus when I want this kidna sound.... not bad on a channel insert either if you're in the mood. But these guys also have a freeware dbx/ssl G type channel VCA that's worth trying.
