Discover Pulsar Audio’s professional plugin collection—high-end compressors, EQs, and effects that blend analog warmth with modern precision for mixing and mastering.
The most faithful emulation of a modern yet legendary tube compressor/limiter – perfect glue for mixing and mastering… An industry-standard tube compressor | Variable-bias tube compressors deliver smooth, transparent gain control, and naturally “glue” buses, mixes, and masters together. Unfortunately, the original hardware is expensive and difficult to integrate with in-the-box workflows. Software emulations exist, but most owners of the hardware agree that they cannot be compared to the original unit, as there’s always “something” missing. With its unique Topology Preservation Technology, Pulsar VM-COMP sounds objectively identical to the hardware in every production context, but also introduces improvements such as visual sidechain EQ editing and extended timing ranges.
Maybe the best compressor for Vocals and Bass. With these IR’s we came so close to the real deal that we got scared :) This is our masterpiece so far. We also included a comparison between the vintage hardware and our IR’s in Demo 2! (First Hardware, Second our IR) In the Demo 3, we used a stock Ableton compressor plug-in with our LA2A IR’s and the result was amazing. You gotta hear it yourself! In Demo 4, we made a Blind Test for you. Let us know if you can guess which one is which :) And please use at least headphones when you check out the demos. You will not regret it! You will get 12 different IR’s in 12 different peak reduction levels. 96kHz/24Bit Wav Files.
Modelled on a highly regarded modern recreation of the classic 660 compressor, and meticulously crafted to deliver smooth, detailed, and musical results. Perfect for vocals, drums, or adding subtle glue and sheen, it shines even with minimal gain reduction. Its adjustable knee ranges from ultra soft and subtle to fairly hard, giving you complete tonal control.
The v2 update is focused mainly on modulation in our hosts with a bunch of new modulators available, along with other functionality and workflow updates which will open up new worlds of creativity. One particularly fabulous aspect of this update is that Snap Heap and Multipass now have the same modular modulation system as Phase Plant, which allows you to combine and connect as many modulators as you need. This unleashes limitless new creative possibilities for creating dynamic, evolving, responsive, or chaotic modular effects within these already super-useful Snapin Hosts.
