Sonalksis is an European software company that makes audio tools designed especially for mastering applications. I came to known Sonalksis only recently when recording drums for my band’s up coming record. We've heard good things about its products and we decided to try them out ourselves. The SV-315 Compressor is part of Sonalksis Essentials pack and was created not only for mastering purposes as well as for recording.

Luckily I’ve got a NFR version of this plugin compressor. It retails for $260. If you buy the whole Sonalksis Essentials package, you will end up saving some money. The Essentials pack includes the SV-315 compressor, SV-719 gate and SV-517 equalizer and retails for $599.99.

The Sonalksis SV-315 Mk2 Compressor have a few features that made me really happy. For example, its capability of having the compressor and its built-in limiter working independently, external side-chain function and precise knob control (some softwares can be a real pain when you have to tweak its parameters with a mouse). The beauty on this piece of technology really is how truly emulates a real analogue compressor. I’ve used it for tracking drums and the results were quite impressive. It comes with few, but very powerful presets.

Little pricey, but I guess you can’t get good quality for low price anywhere. If you are thinking to buy this piece, go for the whole package and save a few bucks. The gate and EQ are really good too.

Simple and clean interface with standard but powerful features.

One of the best software compressors I ever used. It works just like a real analogue hardware.
