更快的起音和释放时间让您可以调出更具侵略性、中频突出的音色，这是原版设备无法实现的。探索 VM-Comp 这款强大的“音色盒”的更多创意用法。

音质如何？
透明而富有音乐性
Pulsar VM-Comp 的声音极其透明，并带有一丝温暖。即使在极端设置下，它也能以柔和而富有音乐性的方式处理瞬态，这与 FET 或 VCA 压缩器截然不同。借助 Mu 功能，您可以在保留音源自然动态的同时，增添动态感。

母带处理
VM-Comp 最经典的用途是母带处理：它能为任何混音带来微妙的“润色”和“粘合”效果，使其更加温暖。它可以透明地用作均衡器（使用较长的启动和释放时间），用作压缩器来增强粘合效果（使用较慢的启动时间和较快的释放时间），或者用作限制器（使用较快的启动时间和释放时间）。在中/侧模式下使用 VM-Comp，您可以获得另一种增强立体声像或收窄过宽混音的方法。

鼓组总线
Pulsar VM-Comp 可以快速创建鼓组总线处理所需的“粘合”效果，同时保留瞬态——即使是底鼓的瞬态。根据所选的增益衰减和释放时间，它可以恢复某些音乐风格所必需的空间氛围——尤其是在用作并行压缩器时。

原声吉他
在原声吉他上，使用相对较低的增益衰减设置，Pulsar VM-Comp 可以营造出优美自然的律动感，同时保留乐器的瞬态响应。这种微妙的特性有助于激活沉闷、生硬的吉他音轨，赋予其鲜明的个性和魅力。

军鼓
Pulsar VM-Comp 可以为单薄的军鼓音色增添饱满度和一致性，同时保留其瞬态响应，这对于军鼓在混音中脱颖而出至关重要。稍稍加大增益衰减，Mu 还可以帮助您恢复延音、谐波，甚至空间感。

人声
Pulsar VM-Comp 在人声处理上表现尤为出色——尤其是在较高的输入电平和中等的起音/释放时间下。它赋予人声模拟风格的温暖感，使其即使在复杂的混音中也能自然融入。

主要特性：
拓扑结构保持技术
我们的建模技术确保完美模拟原设备的特性。从变压器磁通饱和度到电子管的精确响应，再到微小校准缺陷的影响，一切都被完美再现。更多信息，请参阅我们关于此主题的技术文章。

强大的侧链均衡器
Pulsar VM-COMP 不仅可以对侧链进行高通滤波，还能实现更多功能，这得益于其完整的侧链均衡器部分。这里提供五种滤波器类型，以及频段独奏和侧链试听功能，帮助您完美地调整信号，获得理想的检测响应。

中侧处理
Pulsar VM-COMP 内置可选的 M/S 编码和解码功能，能够使用不同的设置分别处理信号的单声道和立体声信息。监听按钮简化了设置，让您可以单独监听中置或侧置信号。现代化的可视化界面可以设置为仅监听您正在处理的通道，让您始终了解自己的操作。

前瞻与后瞻
这项创新功能允许您调整 Pulsar VM-COMP 增益衰减相对于输入信号的时序。前瞻功能使 VM-COMP 能够在瞬态信号出现之前就开始响应，从而确保完美的限幅效果。相反，后瞻功能会延迟增益衰减，使快速瞬态信号在增益衰减生效后才开始处理，从而避免对其进行处理。这开辟了多种可能性，例如在 Mu 完成工作后单独削波瞬态信号。

高级计量部分
增益衰减、输入电平和输出电平均以不同的方式显示。滚动式增益衰减表可同时显示增益衰减和音频信号；VU 表显示两个立体声通道的瞬时增益衰减；LED 式输入、输出和增益衰减指示器可用于校准峰值和 RMS 响度。

更长的起音和释放时间
更快的起音和释放时间让您能够获得更具侵略性、中频更突出的音色，这是原版设备无法实现的。探索 VM-COMP 这款强大的“音色盒”的更多创意用法。

外部侧链
Pulsar VM-COMP 允许您定义外部侧链输入，这在数字时代是所有压缩器都应该具备的功能。这开启了极其广泛的应用：闪避、齿音消除、使用您喜爱的均衡器对侧链信号进行滤波，甚至应用动态处理。

低 CPU 占用
我们花费了大量时间优化 VM-COMP，使其尽可能减少系统资源的占用——尽管它运行着复杂的算法。Pulsar Mu 充分利用现代 CPU 的性能，以更少的资源完成更多的工作。但如果您的计算机性能足够强大，并且您乐于挑战它的极限，您可以随时开启过采样功能，以高达 384kHz 的采样率进行处理！

VM-COMP—–The Ultimate Glue Compressor
The most faithful emulation of a modern yet legendary tube compressor/limiter – perfect glue for mixing and mastering

An industry-standard tube compressor
Variable-bias tube compressors deliver smooth, transparent gain control, and naturally “glue” buses, mixes, and masters together.

Unfortunately, the original hardware is expensive and difficult to integrate with in-the-box workflows. Software emulations exist, but most owners of the hardware agree that they cannot be compared to the original unit, as there’s always “something” missing.

With its unique Topology Preservation Technology, Pulsar VM-Comp sounds objectively identical to the hardware in every production context, but also introduces improvements such as visual sidechain EQ editing and extended timing ranges.

■ Sounds objectively identical to the hardware
■ Signature “glue” compression on buses and masters
■ Complete Sidechain EQ, Look-ahead & Look-behind
■ Zero-latency for tracking / oversampling for mixing
■ 100+ presets and modern analyzers

A Modern Take on a Legendary Compressor
Pulsar VM-Comp is a stereo compressor operating in either Left/Right or Mid/Side modes, designed with mixing and mastering applications in mind, but also flexible enough for tracking. It can be used for levelling, limiting, or just to add a bit of analog warmth with its emulated tube signal path.

Real-Time Visuals
While reproducing the accurate SIFAM metering of the original unit, Pulsar VM-Ccomp also provides a more modern visualization mode for fine-tuning compression settings, representing the waveform and gain reduction both over time and instantaneously.

Full-featured Sidechain EQ
Pulsar Mu also offers various options that apply to the sidechain signal. A popular mod of the original device was to add a high-pass filter, but Vm-Comp goes even further, offering a more complete equalization section, enabling to precisely adjust the compressor’s response to bass, midrange and treble using only four knobs. And you can now freely edit the Pulsar VM-Comp sidechain EQ with an on-screen curve editor

Master Transients with Total Timing Control
Another addition is the possibility of advancing (look-ahead) or delaying (look-behind) the sidechain signal. This enables you to take ultimate control over transients, letting the compressor start to react before they happen, or even after they happen, opening up all kinds of creative uses.

Extended Attacks and Releases
Faster attacks and releases let you dial in a more aggressive, mid-forward timbre, impossible to achieve with the original unit. Discover even more creative uses of this powerful “color box” that is the VM-Comp.

How Does It Sound?
Transparent but musical
The sound of Pulsar VM-Comp is impressively transparent with a touch of warmth. It manages transients in a soft and musical way, even with extreme settings, unlike a FET or VCA compressor. With Mu, you can add movement while respecting the natural dynamics of a source.

Mastering
The most classic use of VM-Comp is in mastering: it brings the discreet “polish” and “glue” to subtly warm up any mix. It can be used either transparently as a leveller (with long attack and release), as a compressor to add glue (slow attack with fast release), or as a limiter (fast attack and fast release). Using VM-Comp in Mid/Side mode gives you another way to increase stereo image, or to curtail an overly wide mix.

Drum buss
Pulsar VM-Comp can quickly create the “glue” needed for cohesive drum buss processing, while still respecting transients – even those of a kick drum. Depending on the chosen gain reduction and release time, it can restore the room ambience essential for certain styles of music – especially when used as a parallel compressor.

Acoustic guitar
On an acoustic guitar, with a relatively low gain reduction setting, Pulsar VM-Comp creates a nice organic groove, while respecting the transients of the instrument. This subtlety is useful for livening up a dull, stiff guitar track, giving it edge and personality.

Snare drum
Pulsar VM-Comp can give body and consistency to thin snare drums sounds, even while preserving their transients, which are essential for helping them break through the mix. When pushed a little harder, Mu can help you recover sustain, harmonics, or even ambience.

Vocals
Pulsar VM-Comp sounds particularly good on vocals – especially with fairly high input and medium attack and release. It gives them the analog-style warmth to help them sit naturally, even in a dense mix.

Main Features:
Topology Preservation Technology
Our modelling technology guarantees a perfect emulation of the original device’s behavior. From the saturation of the magnetic flux in the transformers, to the precise response of the tubes, to the effects of tiny calibration defects, everything is perfectly reproduced. For more info, take a look at our technical article on the subject.

Powerful sidechain EQ
High-passing the sidechain is possible with Pulsar VM-COMP, but so is a lot more, thanks to an entire sidechain EQ section. Five filter types are available here, as is band solo and sidechain audition to help perfectly tailor your signal and arrive at the ideal detection response.

Mid-Side processing
Pulsar VM-COMP comes with built-in optional M/S encoding and decoding, enabling a signal’s mono and stereo information to be processed separately with different settings. The Listen buttons simplify the setting by allowing you to listen to Mid or Sides signals in isolation, and the modern visualization can be set to monitor only the channel you’re working on, so you always know what you’re doing.

Look ahead, look behind
This innovative feature lets you shift the timing of Pulsar VM-COMP’s gain reduction compared to the input. Look-ahead enables the VM-COMP to start reacting to transients even before they happen, ensuring perfect limiting. Conversely, the look-behind delays the gain reduction, so that fast transients can be left unprocessed while the gain reduction kicks in after them. This opens up various possibilities like clipping transients separately after Mu has done its work.

Advanced metering section
Gain reduction, input level and output level are all visible in different ways. The scrolling gain reduction meter offers a view of gain reduction and the audio signal; VU-style metering shows instantaneous gain reduction for both stereo channels; and LED-style input, output and gain reduction is available to calibrate peak and RMS loudness.

Extended Attacks and Releases
Faster attacks and releases let you dial in a more aggressive, mid-forward timbre, impossible to achieve with the original unit. Discover even more creative uses of this powerful “color box” that is the VM-COMP.

External sidechain
Pulsar VM-COMP allows to define an external sidechain input, as all compressors should in the digital age. This opens a very wide range of applications: ducking, de-essing, filtering the sidechain signal with your favourite EQ, or even applying dynamic processing.

Low CPU consumption
We spent a ridiculous amount of time optimizing VM-COMP to consume as few system resources as possible – despite the complex algorithms at work. Pulsar Mu takes full advantage of modern CPUs to do more with less. But if your computer can stand it and you enjoy making it suffer, you can always turn oversampling on, processing at rates up to 384kHz!
