Compression just got a character-select screen, and Techivation’s M-Compressor 2 looks built for producers who hate endless knob wrestling. This M-Series refresh raises quieter material, reins in louder peaks, and gates low-level content, with separate Up, Down, and Gate thresholds controlling each behavior.
Spectral processing treats frequency areas differently without slicing the signal into multiband lanes. Manual tweaking remains available, while Shaping monitors the audio and nudges gain behavior away from murk or bite. Mix Assistant scans the track, generates 12 tailored setups, and lets the user choose four for fluid morphing between compression flavors.
Compatibility covers Windows 7 onward and macOS 10.15 or later through VST, VST3, AU, and AAX formats. Techivation starts the plug-in at $55, with its regular cost climbing to $149 after the introductory deal expires.
