I own Vintage Warmer which is a great Program and performs compression, limiting and it's "Warmer" magic.
What benefit would it be to use MasterComp as well
and how would you use it in conjuntion with VW.

Thanks, Brian.

Exactly what I plan to do. MC for compression as needed, VW for final limiting...

They are completely different plug-ins with different sound capabilities and features. Their overall GUI layout is just similar to show that this is a plug-in from the high-end family of PSP plug-ins.

Sounds Great...
But, Before I invest in MasterComp-
I would still like to have an idea of
how they would both be utilized best together?
VW for individual tracks & MasterComp for Mix, Then back to VW for limiting? Etc.

A little more detail please...

Thanks Again, Brian.

It would be the best to try out the demo version which is now not limited in the way the pre release demo was.

The PSP MC was thought as bus compressor mainly. Please note that it uses a lot of resources and currently its usage is rather limited to 1-2 instances in the mix.

I've spent a considerable amount of time in the last several days doing nothing but characterizing the plugin and I am very pleased with it. It's not just another compressor. It has a great sound and is very easy to dial in.

I'm presently mixing a project an it'll be in the Master Buss chain. The FAT option is excellent, but a real resource hog.

I've compared it to several other plugin compressors that I know well, trying to dial a similar sound and the MasterComp so far has sounded as good or better... that's what matters

For those of us who are not audio engineers, a best practices white-paper for your plug-in's would be very helpful. I recently purchased PSP MC because I like to support you guys, but I'm finding it hard to use. I usually rely on presets to start with but this plug-in has few.

Again, the white paper would help.

Thanks.

Mike

Mike, what exactly would you expect that is not included in the manual?

Mateusz,

I work for a software company. We have a lot of technical documentation, which I would characterize your documentation as. But we also have "best practices" white papers that help our clients get started.

People who are experts in the audio field and are totally familar with the application domain, usually only need technical dcoumentation. However, people like myself, who are hobbyists and amateurs, need to gain the insight that we don't have. We rely on white papers to do this.

Mike
