VSC-2
Designed for a āBig Impactā
The original hardware Vertigo VSC-2 Quad Discrete Compressor built its stellar reputation largely on the four custom hand-built, discrete ā1979ā VCAs used in its design. Unlike other VCA compressors, the VSC-2 incorporates four discrete 1979 VCAs across two channels. This plugin version of the VSC-2 captures every nuance of the original hardware, bringing its smooth, clear, glossy, and precise performance to your DAW.
The power of Quad VCAs
Each channel in the VSC-2 is equipped with one VCA in the audio path, and another one inside the audio sidechain, allowing it to even react to out of phase peaks without image shift. The VSC-2 provides variable harmonics depending on Gain Reduction and Make Up Gain, making this compressor one of the cleanest ācoloring devicesāout there, perfect for precision applications like mastering and mix buss treatment.
Multiple modes, multiple colors
Although the VSC-2 was developed as a Stereo Bus Compressor, each channel provides a complete set of controls which also makes the VSC-2 a dual mono "must have" in the mix. It gets even better in plugin form with a dedicated mono version. Add on unique and innovative features such as the ratio control, which increases with amplitude in āSoftā mode for smoother compression, and you have a clean-but-colored compressor that can find its way into any mix.
Compression, soft or hard
With its Soft mode, the VSC-2 ātip toesā its way into compression, starting with ratios as low as 1:1, and then slowly and automatically increasing to as high as 8:1 as the signal intensifies. This gives you a practically inaudible start to compression, even with extremely dynamic signals. Meanwhile, the Brick mode transforms the VSC-2 into an analog limiter, effectively cutting off signal peaks for a tight, smooth tone with incredibly even transients.
