TriComp by Max for Cats Out Now: Advanced M4L Multiband Compressor

This latest Max for Cats release coincides with Charlie’s birthday, my cat who inspired the name. TriComp is a Max for Live multiband compressor that allows for flexible sidechaining of the three variable frequency bands individually. This gives you more precision in controlling the dynamic of the audio signal as well as interesting possibilities for sound design.

Check out the demo:

Besides the usual features of a multi band compressor like ratio, threshold, knee, attack, release or makeup gain, TriComp also has features that make sculpting the sound more powerful and effective.

TriComp Features:

SideChain routing and level meter
SideChain activator per band
Frequency Spectrum Display
Hi and Low Splits
Frequency band mute switches
White noise activation
Input, output and sidechain gains
Push and controller ready
A collection of presets

TriComp comes in a zip file as a self-installing Live Pack with an integrated lesson in Live’s Help section and PDF manuals in English and German, and is available for EUR 20 in the Sonic Bloom shop.
