Thick. Gluey. Musical.
This plugin is sick. I A'B'd this plugin against various others waves, uad, slate and more. This thing just sounds big. You don't even need to take anything off your audio. Just running the plugin and at unity with no compression just sounds musical. I really love it on my 2 mix and drums.

The right choice

Essential plug-in for RMS level up.
I use this when I raise the sound pressure.
Other maximaizer / limiters have limitations in RMS level-up.
not satisfied.
If you try to match the RMS level to something else,
There would have been considerable distortion.
If you use this, you don't know the limit.
It's quite good and always used in mastering.

Plugins vs Hardware
Never heard the actual hardware of the Shadow Hills compressor, but when ran my mix down through this plugin I was very impressed, how it beefed up my mix and the presets are awesome as well !

For most mix buses
I love it on most master buses. But it would be the best with dry/wet option. (the hardware doesnt have it too) So my next step is to buy API2500 that got this option.
Thank u, UAD

특유의 질감은 못느끼겠고
섬세하게 노브를 이리저리 돌려보면서 느껴지는 변화가 어느정도 만족스러웠다. 어깨에 힘주는 느낌으로 음악에 힘을 불어넣어준다.

An absolute essential for Mastering. Whether you use it for seriously beefing up your mix or just to add subtle polish, this is your answer.

Great flexible ultra low CPU usage compressor!
I'm super happy with how this compressor sounds and works. I am finding my self using it a lot on individual tracks as a tone shaping device, using the different transformers. I prefer the discrete side's sound but do find the optical side useful on some applications. I have never used the real deal, but have been the same room as one being used so I can't talk about how accurate it is compared to the original. All said and done it was a great purchase, we all say do I really need another compressor and I can say yes to this one!

If you want sound pressure！
It is the mastering plug-in that boasts the highest quality ever. A plug-in that gives a soul to the sound as seen by the heavy pressure appearance.

Classy!
I compared this to my 500 series Shadow Hills Dual Vandergraph and it held in there. I did prefer the raw tone, character and life-like quality of the hardware, but the plugin is awesome and does exhibit the classy Shadow Hills character. This is a great plugin if you need to add weight to a source. It might not be my first choice when looking for a punchy/aggressive compressor. Wonderful plugin.

Good effect.
At least this effect is useable. I was very disappointed with the fatso and ocean ways! Could have spent the cash on a hardware piece that is useable.

Always On The Mastering Chain
I love to call it Dr. Frankenstein of mastering plugins. With the right amount of each compression , the Shadow Hills Mastering Compressor brings any mix to life. So many possibilities!

bad tool for mastering and mixing
I originally took the shadow hills compressor just to add it to my mastering suite, but then i realize how much inproved also my mixbus, or to add a particular color to individual instruments and vocals; Although the plugin is well written, I think I feel some small difference from the hardware

Good plug in, nothing special
It's a good plugin but after reading many rewievs and heard talk about it I was expecting much more...
However an interesting plug in in some situations.
