de la Mancha sixtyfive

It’s described as a soft-knee RMS compressor with a vintage flavour. The RMS detection and soft-knee is designed to help give a smooth and musical compression experience, the non-linear response imparts character and the gentle saturation brings colour and warmth. As well as all of the originals features, this version adds parallel compression, extended knob ranges and peak metering.
