DC1A

DC1A free compressor by Klanghelm

DC1A is a free compressor VST, VST3, Audio Unit, AAX plugin developed by Klanghelm. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

DC1A is the little brother of Klanghelm’s upcoming compression monster DC8C. I’ve taken one of my favorite settings from DC8C and tried to make it work in a two control context. Soundwise it’s comparable to the PUNCH mode in DC8C.

I’ve always wanted to do a compressor with just an input and output knob, a compressor that just works: gentle, grateful, from almost invisible, smooth leveling to heavy pumping with a nice crunchy saturation and punchy enough to treat drums with.

DC1A looks like a one trick pony. But don’t get fooled by lack of further controls. You may be surprised, on how many different material this little thing works. DC1A is heavily program dependent.

CrunchDude

CrunchDude free overdrive | saturation by Heeb

CrunchDude is a free overdrive and saturation VST plugin developed by Heeb. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

CrunchDude is a simple guitar amplifier emulation. As the name implies, its strength lies not only in clean or over-the-top lead sounds, but especially in the crunch sounds it can produce.

Features:

  • The Input section. No distortion takes place here yet, only amplification and equalization plus a Low Cut control (which determines the cut-off frequency of the 6 dB/octave filter).
  • Two Pre-amp sections. These are switched in series, and are completely equivalent. You can switch them on and off. They have a 3-band equalizer with adjustable cut-off frequencies, and a Drive dial that determines the gain and the resulting distortion. The equalizer is “passive”, which means that when Low, Mid, and High are in maximum position, no alteration of the sound takes place (flat frequency response, 0 dB gain).
  • The Output Stage section. Again, you have the same type of 3-band equalizer at your disposal, an Output level dial, and an extra Low Cut.
  • The Cabinets section. There are two almost identical sections in parallel here, which you can balance with the Mix dial. You can switch this section off. The sound of both sections is determined by their Prox (proximity) and Fdb (feedback) dials.
