A member of the VINTAGE COMPRESSORS Series, the VC 160 is based on one of the most famous VCA compressors found in studios all over the world. The VC 160 provides a continuously-adjustable threshold range and a compression ratio from 1:1 right up to infinity while still offering intuitive controls for immediate usability.
A member of the VINTAGE COMPRESSORS Series, the VC 76 recreates a studio legend with a characteristic presence and a punchy, clear high end. This popular compressor/peak limiter, based on FET technology, is renowned for its super-fast attack and unique ‘All Button Mode’ — a special combination of attack, release, knee and ratio settings that creates a definitive, slightly overdriven sound. Using the ‘no-button mode,’ you can even apply the VC 76’s signature tone without applying any compression to the signal. All as an intuitive, instantly-useable, stand-alone plug-in.
The VC 2A is one of three new vintage compressors from NI that feature DSP guts from modelling experts Softube. The plug-ins operate inside NI’s free Guitar Rig 4 Player. The VC 2A models the famous Teletronix LA-2A. This electro-optical design is popular for its simple two-knob layout (input gain and peak reduction) and its forgiving level-dependent attack and release behaviour. Its only other setting is ratio, which can be switched between limit and compress modes. NI’s VC 2A adds three further options that aren’t in the original: mix blend for parallel compression, sidechaining and detector low cut (20Hz to 2kHz for both external and internal sidechains). Vintage gear junkies will also spot that the VC 2A offers input level metering as well as the gain reduction and output level meter options from the original. With the VC 2A having to be loaded inside Guitar Rig, launching an instance is more complex than IK’s White 2A. However, with the additional features on a dropdown panel and the option to fold away the main panel completely, it’s certainly more flexible.
