soooo transparent
my favorite mastering compressor. gives my limiter a chance to get reallly loud

One of the best FREE compressors out there
A punchy warm Eq, If you have $0 budget to start with, this is a great plugin I recommend. I'm completely in love with this one, its a very clean compressor.

Evolved feedback comp.
This is a pay version of TDR's free feedback comp.... it has a more versatile sidechain and a different feel to the 2 time constant sections.... its not actually better than feedback comp II, just different and a little more versatile thanks to the detection circuit tweaks. I like both and use both. I like this one better on groups.

Description
TDR Kotelnikov is a wideband dynamics processor combining high fidelity dynamic range control with deep musical flexibility. As a descendant of the venerable TDR Feedback Compressor product family, Kotelnikov has directly inherited several unique features such as a proven control scheme, individual release control for peak and RMS content, an intuitive user interface, and powerful, state of the art, high-precision algorithms.
With a sonic signature best described as “stealthy”, Kotelnikov has the ability to manipulate the dynamic range by dramatic amounts, while carefully preserving the original tone, timbre and punch of a musical signal. As such, it is perfectly suited to stereo bus compression as well as other critical applications.
The concept is “proudly digital” in the sense that it doesn’t try to emulate any previously existing device. This is the original!
Key specs and features
- 64bit floating point precision for all relevant calculations
- Multi-rate processing structure for highest accuracy
- “Delta” oversampled signal path (bit transparent at 0dB gain reduction)
- Super fast, yet natural sounding compression
- “Crest factor” based control scheme offering independent release controls for peak and RMS events
- Flexible sidechain highpass filter
- Advanced stereo linking options optimized for the stereo bus
- Delta preview mode to preview the difference between compressed and original signal
- Latency compensated parallel bypass (i.e. processing not interrupted)
Wow!!
Wow! Just WOW!! Clean compressor with mojo (!!) and sounds "expensive". Tokyo Dawn Labs is one of the greatest!
