TCL-2 by Millennia | VST Compressor Plugin | Crunch The Compressor
#tcl2 #twincom #vstcompressor
This is the TCL-2 vst compressor plugin by Millennia and Brainworx. In the Crunch The Compressor series I purposely push vst compressor plugins into extremely high levels of gain reduction. Be aware that there are volume spikes at times when demonstrating how this compressor behaves. Volume matching is not exact nor is it intended to be. We want to Crunch The Compressor!
The TCL-2 is a clean, pristine and classy sounding compressor that also works in mid/side MS mode allowing you to manipulate the center and left/right parts of the stereo field independently. You can push it to the extreme and saturate your audio source with its transformer and circuitry emulations. The Millennia TCL-2 vst compressor is great for the mix bus and groups.
Here is more information from their manual:
MILLENNIA TCL-2 Plugin
Twin Topology Opto-Compressor/Limiter with added M/S Mode
High Resolution. Immaculate J-FET and Class-A Tube Modeling
The original TCL-2 hardware design was the result of meticulous listening tests on numerous circuit, topology, and packaging designs. The TCL-2 is a finely tuned instrument intended for critical professional applications.
We feel the hardware TCL-2 is the world’s most sonically neutral analog Opto-Compressor, and we have meticulously modeled that transparency within our software.
“With the emergence of 24+ bit digital audio, recording engineers are faced with a new requirement for undistorted dynamic range. The TCL-2 meets this challenge exceptionally well.”
Twin Topology is a Millennia-exclusive design technique that combines 50V discrete solid-state amplifiers and 400V vacuum tube amplifiers in the same chassis. Tube or solid-state audio paths are selectable from a front-panel switch. This dedicated two-circuit design offers the flexibility of applying distinctly different characteristics to your processed sound.
