It also sounded great, which is the important thing!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese days, it’s getting harder and harder to find working originals, but their legendary sound-shaping power is still highly sought-after. Now, thanks to Arturia’s advanced TAE® modelling, you can enjoy using this fabled compressor in your DAW, on as many channels as you want, and with advanced features only possible through software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 col-lg-6 pt-2 pt-lg-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the more common DBX 160, the 165A® sported several unique features that made it a “must have” for studios looking for tight, punchy percussive sounds. Known as the “Over Easy” compressor, its auto attack-decay detection made great compression simple, its harsh peakstop limiter added a touch of vintage filth when things really hit hard, and its unique compression sound gives even extreme settings a natural feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re looking for an easy-to-use compressor with character, you’ll love Comp VCA-65.\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s so special \u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eabout Comp VCA-65?\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 col-sm-11 col-md-9 col-lg-7 col-xl-6 col-xxl-5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"h3 small\"\u003eEvery nuance, and quirk that made the original DBX compressor so sought-after has been perfectly recreated in software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough careful analysis and painstaking research everything from the biting “crunch” of the peakstop to the fluid “over easy” knee is here.

Push the button\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast, but certainly not least, Comp VCA-65 includes a “manual” mode for the sidechain. When this mode is engaged, you can trigger the side chain with the virtual button to see how it reacts, and automate it in your DAW so you can get total control without even needing an input audio source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 col-sm-6 col-lg-4 pt-4\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"prep\"\u003e02.

The “Time Warp” function lets you take advantage of this, so you can get creative with your placement of the compression envelope as it engages and releases. This is a dream come true for experimental producers and sound designers!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 col-sm-6 col-lg-4 pt-4\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"prep\"\u003e03. The “S” Word\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sidechain includes an integrated SSL®-style EQ, letting you hone in on particular frequencies of the sidechain signal that activates the compressor. One easy, effective use for this is to use the EQ to boost the sibilance of a vocal, and let the sidechain act as a highly customizable de-esser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"prep mb-2\"\u003eIncluded in\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eFX collection\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"h3 small mb-3\"\u003eEffects you'll actually use\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pb-3 mb-3\"\u003eThis effect is part of FX Collection, a suite of essential audio effect plugins empowering musicians, producers, and artists to get creative with their production.
