Solid State Logic has launched a new plugin which leverages SSL’s storied legacy in compression technology. G3 MultiBusComp adds multi-band capabilities, advanced processing and sidechain routing to the renowned G Series glue and punch maker.

“Our new G3 MultiBusComp represents yet another significant addition to our growing portfolio of plug-ins,” says Jon Sandman, Plug-ins Product Manager at SSL.

“With three distinct bands of compression, intelligent sidechaining options and other powerful features such as auto gain compensated 4K Drive, this is a must have plug-in for anyone involved with mixing or mastering.”

SSL G3 MultiBusComp features

  • Multiband processing with classic SSL “glue” compression: With 3 bands of classic SSL “glue” compression, G3 MultiBusComp delivers the same unparalleled sonic characteristics that SSL is known for, now across three customizable frequency bands.
  • Parameter link: Quickly and easily apply inverse changes between the input/output gain or the threshold and makeup gains in each frequency band.
  • ‘4K’ drive per band: Inspired by the iconic SL 4000 Series console, add warmth and character to your mix while retaining full dynamic control over your signal.
  • Powerful sidechaining and filtering options: Easily customize sidechain filters to accentuate or diminish response to certain frequencies. Unlink the sidechain filters from the band crossover and external sidechaining to drive the dynamics from a different frequency band, or a completely different signal entirely.
  • Band graph view: Provides an intuitive way to set your threshold and frequency crossovers, allowing you to achieve more control over your mix.
  • Auditioning: Use mutually exclusive soloing on each band and each band’s sidechain input to make informed decisions about your mix.
  • Resizable GUI: G3 MultiBusComp features a high-resolution GUI that can be adjusted from 50% to 200% for easy sizing and positioning.

Priced 199.99 USD/EUR, the G3 MultiBusComp plugin for Windows and Mac (VST/VST3, AU and AAX) is available from distributor Plugin Boutique and at the SSL eStore. It is also available via SSL’s Rent-to-Own plan and as part of the SSL Complete subscription.
