Key Features
The TDR Kotelnikov GE is a stereo mastering compressor that takes its heritage from TDR's history of digital feedback compressors, that reduce a signal's gain before passing it through the sidechain. This approach allows Kotelnikov to sound uniquely fast and snappy, while remaining utterly transparent thanks to its digital design. Only reacting and manipulating the gain of the signal and transforming character through attack and release settings, this compressor will enhance and manipulate the dynamics of your sound and absolutely nothing else.
The Kotelnikov's peak crest design allows you to process peak and RMS level inputs with different release times, making for an extremely flexible compressor that can create smooth, breathing masters incredibly easily. Adjustable knee and a wet/dry mix offer new ways of harnessing Kotelnikov's sound for parallel processing or aggressive dynamics squashing while still remaining see-through. With frequency-dependent ratio controls, a sidechain high-pass filter, and Yin/Yang functions for controlling harmonics, Kotelnikov GE adds broad and advanced flexibility for letting you get the most out of its sound.
Please Note: This product comes in the form of a digital download code that will be sent to your email for activation.
Product Ref: 219267
Based on TDR's original digital feedback compressor design, the Kotelnikov is not based on vintage or analog units and has a distinct identity of its own from embracing its own digital nature. Smooth, transparent and versatile, this compressor does the dynamics processing you need it to, with no unnecessary complications. There's still plenty of depth, but this is as precise as compression gets. With advanced oversampling functionality, multi-rate processing, and various CPU compensation options, you can be sure the Kotelnikov will deliver its sound no matter how intensive the project, with absolutely zero aliasing or distortion.
Adding the ability to take advantage of equal loudness contours for incredibly naturalistic compression, as well as frequency-dependent ratio control, a sidechain high-pass filter, this version of the Kotelnikov opens so many more possibilities for creating the sounds you want. Yin/Yang functions give you customisable control over the harmonics of your sound, and "insane" mode allows you to reach even higher levels of processing quality than before.
