Voxengo Polysquasher V2 Mastering Compressor Plugin Released

August 03, 2009

Voxengo are happy to announce the release of version 2 of Polysquasher — a mastering compressor plug-in for professional audio and sound production applications, for Mac OS X and Windows pro audio software that supports VST and AudioUnit plug-ins.

Version 2 features the following improvements over version 1:

Compressor mode editor
Linear-phase oversampling
Multi-channel support
Multi-platform support
Undo/redo
Routing matrix
Preset manager
User interface coloration
User interface re-scaling
Channel grouping
Plug-in instance naming
Bypass switch

Polysquasher was designed with a main goal: to be transparent. Polysquasher achieves its goal by using a unique compression algorithm which requires a small number of parameters ??? basically threshold and ratio only — making this compressor a joy to use. More advanced settings are hidden in the "compressor mode editor" panel where you can create your own compressor modes that can be easily recalled later.

Polysquasher is best used as a finishing compressor inserted in the chain before the final mastering limiter.

Polysquasher features:

Transparent compression sound
Real-time gain reduction graph
8 built-in compressor modes
Compressor mode editor
Multi-channel processing
Internal channel routing
Channel grouping
Up to 8x linear-phase oversampling
64-bit floating point processing
Preset manager
Undo/redo history
A/B comparisons
Contextual hint messages

Polysquasher can be loaded into any audio host application that conforms to the VST or AudioUnit plug-in specification. Plug-in is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista (32- and 64-bit) and Mac OS X 10.4.11 and above (Intel and PowerPC) computers (2 GHz dual-core or faster processor with at least 1 GB of system RAM recommended). A separate binary distribution file is available for each target computer platform for each plug-in format.

One-month introductory price of USD 55.95 is now effective, which is 20% off the regular price. Upgrading from the previous version costs USD 34.95 if previous version was purchased earlier than 90 days from now: otherwise upgrade is free during this grace period. Demo version of Polysquasher can be downloaded at the Voxengo web site.
