SSA Plugins aXCompressor

Ambisonic Compressor Plugin

aXCompressor is an ambisonic compressor specifically designed to control the dynamics of ambisonic signals without damaging their delicate spatial balance.

aXCompressor has all of the parameters for a standard dynamic range compressor.

Simply use it exactly as you would with a stereo compressor.


Easy to Use

Tame the dynamics of your ambisonic recordings and mixes just like you would when working with stereo.

aXCompressor is an ambisonic compressor with the settings you already know.


Gain Reduction Display

Shows the amount of gain reduction applied over time.

The range can be adjusted by right clicking and selecting a new range.


Ambisonic Order Detection

Processing automatically matches the order of the input signal to optimize CPU usage when working with lower order signals, no need to manually select your ambisonic order.


Features

  • Input gain - boost or cut the input gain
  • Output make-up gain - adjust the output level to compensate for a reduction in overall level due to compression
  • Threshold - the threshold level above which a signal will have compression applied
  • Ratio - controls the amount of compression applied when signals go above the Threshold
  • Knee width - control how smoothly the compressor goes from uncompressed to compressed as signal level increases, zero knee width is a hard knee
  • Attack time - the time in milliseconds for the compressor to become fully active once the signal goes above the Threshold
  • Release time - the time in milliseconds for the compressor to stop acting on the signal once it falls below the Threshold
  • RMS or peak detection - control whether it is the signals peak or average levels that are used to determine if the level is above the Threshold

Process High Resolution Tenth-Order Ambisonics

aXCompressor can process any order up to tenth-order Ambisonics, letting you work with the highest spatial resolution currently available*.

*Currently only possible in Reaper 7+ which allows for tracks with up to 128 channels.

Other DAWs are limited to seventh-order (Pro Tools Ultimate) or third-order (e.g. Cubase).


Input/Output Formats

  • Input: Any Ambisonic channel format with the W channel on the first input
  • Output: The same as the input

aXCompressor applies the dynamic range compression while preserving the spatial relationship between all of the sounds in your immersive scene.
