stompboxjon « Best Freeware Compressor »
Published on 09/17/12 at 06:34Density MKII came out around the summer of 2009 and I have been using it every since. The plug in is very easy to use and to understand. There is only one main interface for the plug in that has all of you the controls on it like, drive, dry/wet, “makeup” and a few others. It is a very good stereo bus dynamic processor. The manual is very easy to understand, I had to use it several times for all of the timing specifications. It too me a while to understand and work with the timing presets that are on Density MKII. Density MKII seems to be in a class of its own when I compared it to other similar style plug ins. It is one of the better mastering compressors that I have seen on the freeware side of things.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
The software is very stable, it has crashed my Cubase one time, but other than that it worked great in Cubase and FL Studio. I have been using it for 3 years now and still use it. I have not received any updates for it and I don’t think they came out with any.
OVERALL OPINION
It can be downloaded for free now online, you have nothing to lose. It will probably end up being your master compressor for your sessions. Even though it’s a freeware you will still get a high performance out of it. The sound is very clean. There are many things that I can do with Density MII and sometimes a sound that I can get, that I couldn’t get using Waves SSL. Waves SSL was not free and cost a good amount of money and I have managed to get a better sound out of Density MKII. Density MKII is the best freeware compressor that has came out. It is 100 percent worth the free download. Download it now!
