Voxengo Marquis Compressor

Marquis Compressor is a “universal” compressor AAX, AudioUnit and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications.  You’ll find a very smooth compression performance in this compressor, coupled with a harmonically-rich sound, both suitable for mixing and mastering.  Being “universal” this compressor can be used on a wide range of sound material: individual tracks, stems and mixes, producing “clean” or “colored” sound.

Marquis Compressor plugin was built around a tube triode-modeled amplifier cascade.  At low Drive settings this cascade produces a mild harmonic coloration while at higher Drive settings you can get a brutal tube saturation which works great for drums, bass, and vocals.  At moderate Drive settings this cascade can add a pleasant grit to the mix.

Marquis Compressor features a unique “round” signal level detection algorithm, which creates a very open, punchy, compressed, sound with an impressive transient response.  Beside this, Marquis Compressor offers a classic feedback (opto) compression mode switchable to a more common feed-forward compression.

Marquis Compressor carries 3 distinctive compression algorithms, one of them (T3) being modeled after a classic analog compressor.  The Gate algorithm is also available which is handy at reducing drum bleed in drum tracks.
