I'd forgotten about this plugin. Just watched the video, and it seems weird to not have attack & release controls on an 1176. The music in the video isn't really my style, either, and I had a hard time getting past the fact that the toms sounded as if they were recorded in a different area code than the rest of the kit. I don't know, I guess I would need to demo it on some stuff that isn't quite so dense. What did you think of it, Jesse? |

3a is ok. Still hasn't nailed the real thing. The other comps in it are better. I end up using the "A" comp in a lot of places I wouldn't typically expect a rev a to work. The "D" sounds good, but pretty much always requires you back down the input, because it is always compressing more than the others. I find this behavior annoying; I wish the three units were better 'calibrated' in this respect. I dig the addition of the pre or post LF and HF eqs. Very handy.
My biggest gripe I think is that that saturation tends to be way too much at its default. Mine lives about halfway down below 'unity'. Occasionally I'll push it up to its unity default, but most of the time, that ends up being way too much 'color'.
Also, as much as I love Kiive/Ed/etc, his auto gain compensation scheme is fucking terrible. The worst in the industry LOL. His plugs sound great but MAN does he miss the mark on the auto gain.

I haven’t tried as the lack of attack/release controls on the 1176’s turns me off, but the Microlimiter plugin is great!
Have you tried the Black Rooster LA3A? It’s solid.

The best way I can describe this Mark is if you take a bunch of gummies and come to the conclusion that an 1176 should have the controls of an 1176. Then you down a bottle of vodka and it almost makes sense 😎 |

Downloaded the demo and briefly gave it a whirl, but I need to spend some more time with it before I draw any conclusions.
On a related note, Purafied also put out an amp sim called Deathwestern recently, and it’s surprisingly awesome. Definitely a one-trick-pony, but for any sort of modern rock/pop punk/metalcore/whatever, it absolutely nails the sound. I usually hate the built-in cabs on most amp sims, but this one is definitely usable.
The GUI looks like the Neural DSP stuff, so I’m guessing those guys had a hand in developing it, but I actually like this more than any of the Neural DSP sims.

This seems like a really powerful compressor. I watched the video and would have picked a different mode almost every time than he did. I agree on a compressor with 3 1176 modes, but no control over time constants is freaking weird. I like the idea of negative saturation. I think plugin makers (and many mixers) rely way too much on bad sounding digital saturation.
The EQ idea is really great. I do feel really overloaded as it in with plugins. It's tempting, but I think I'm staying away.

The thing was I ended up doing it in reverse, with a sudden temp increase of 40 degrees in 36hrs my hip was screaming so bad I had to take a gummy after a night at the bar with friends. I’m not sure I would buy this thing, but from my days of gearpimping the knobs the easier sell a comp is to newbies. |

Hey everyone! Nice to see lots of unique subjective opinions and feedback here. I’d like to touch on a few things. 99.9% of my engineer friends who use 76 style compression generally use 4:1, slowest attack, fastest release. That is the default setting for all the 76 style compressors here because this plug-in was designed to be a fast and intuitive tool to allow users to feel confident using the available variable options to quickly make tonal adjustments and move on. The simplicity of the plugin has some of my favorite mix engineers contacting me to tell me how much they love the plugin, how easy it is to dial, and that they use 30-60 instances of it during a mix session on literally every channel. If the lack of attack, release, and ratio is a feature that makes you not interested in trying the plugin, then maybe this plugin isn’t for you! And that’s totally ok!
Each compressor is calibrated to hit the same gain reduction and have the same output signal. There is a slight difference in perceived volumes because each unit has a different amount of THD in it. For example, the D unit is in it’s natural state has much more THD than the other units and therefore that would need to be turned down significantly to match the perceived volume difference… HOWEVER… if we did that, we wouldn’t be accurately representing the compressor in it’s default state. To demonstrate I’ve attached 4 photos of the compressor being used in it’s default state, with a 1khz tone being supplied at -6db, hitting the compressor at -4db, and returning on output at -6db. This method was taught to me early on and is how I calibrate my hardware units. A process also supported by how Michael Brauer calibrated his hardware units. However the hardware is calibrated to 0dbvu instead of -6db FS, but that’s irrelevant to the point here. Anyways here are the screenshots: www.dropbox.com/sh/q0x5mw9mx84agvl/AAA0GtiHAJck6-exKAMwmi4ya?dl=0The comment about how the THD is too much in default is actually how the compressors are in their default state. The beauty of having the THD knob is the ability to decrease the THD of each unit making them even more flexible than the hardware versions they model. So simply, if you think there is too much THD, thankfully you have an option to decrease that. And of if you like that, you have the ability to increase that. Lastly the auto gain. From what I understand the features of the auto gain is a limitation of the software development tools and will be updated eventually. For example you can’t set the input to a new level and click auto gain without the output snapping to a different position because of the downsides of the “linking” feature in the plugin development build. However with that said, I personally am satisfied having the auto gain remain somewhat consistent in use instead of matching precise calibrated inputs and outputs to ensure the audio level has no volume change. If I can hit a button and have it generally stay within the same volume range for me to quickly hear the difference with and without… then I’m extremely satisfied. Again these plugins from Purafied are aimed at increasing workflow speed and limiting the tweaker variables that overwhelm music creators that simply want turn key solutions to quickly get better sounding results without having advance audio engineer knowledge of the tools. These are all designed to increase speed, morale, and make users feel confident with their subjective sonic results.
The walkthrough video and peoples comments about it are funny. What sounds good to me might not sound good to you, and what is awesome is that you have the ability to make those changes to the settings to suit your subjective opinion and get the results you desire instead of following my subjective choices. It’s disappointing to see some of the seemingly unnecessary negative digs at the music and the sounds captured but hey, people like to be aggressive and combative online where I personally like to be supportive and be best friends. That’s why I’ve developed plugins that I think sound great to me in hopes that others will enjoy using them and find their workflows and end results to be more pleasing. If you don’t, then simply maybe these aren’t for you. Regardless thanks for the feedback, support, and general interest in the plugins. Happy new year to everyone! - Sam Pura |

After reading some of the harsh criticisms of the demo video I had to watch for myself! I found it to be one of the best plugin videos I've watched, leaving me with a very clear understanding of how Purified works and sounds. It's not a genre I inhabit often, and the goal was obviously not to sound like an organic band jamming in a room. But I dug it. That said, it would be cool to hear a video with real drums, acoustic guitars and piano etc. just to hear how Purified might be helpful in that context. The last few years I've veered to a more hybrid mixing set up (I mostly blame RGO for that!) but the workflow of Purified for turning around a quick mix is enticing. I plan to check out the demo once the holidays are behind us.

This may come as a shock to some... but the VU video uses 100% real drums!  I appreciate your feedback and great suggestions. If I had access to license free productions of mine that used real piano, acoustic guitar, etc I would gladly do that! However I am limited to using the independent productions of mine that will not get copyright strikes, and also my productions in general tend to gravitate around the "Pop Rock" genres. This production used in the video is one of the more diverse range of instrumentations I have available to use for these videos. In the future I do plan to create some new productions just for the video walkthroughs and I will absolutely consider using a more diverse range of acoustic instruments to demonstrate with. Thanks for your great feedback and support! |

Happy new year to everyone! - Sam Pura I mean that’s cool that your friends do that but you’ve made this plugin much more limited than other plugins and a a mere distortion plugin on bassy materiel from the fast release. A good part of the 1176 appeal is the distortion but also the 1176 has a large variety of control in the attack and release knobs from letting the transient mostly pass through to clamping down to a wave shaper. I know several bassists who use an 1176 clone as a distortion device with a slower release to get a cool sound with some control without massive distortion from the fast release. compared to say Molot GE or Pulsar 1178 or even the Overloud 76 some guitarists use, your plugin is much more limited |

Clearly this plugin might not be for you! And that's totally ok! Thankfully you've got dozens of fantastic and alternative options to better suit those needs! yes because your compressors and the kiive audio ones cost roughly the same as this www.tokyodawn.net/tdr-molot-ge/ and aren’t nearly as good. Your plugins have minimum phase anti-alias filters in the oversampling making top end weird and limited amount of control. I’m harshly criticizing your product for very good reasons. If you don’t want to improve the flexibility of yoir product you need to market it then to the kind of people who don’t ever turn the knobs on a compressor and price and market it right for them. Broadcast, synth guys, podcasters, musicians too inexperienced with production to turn knobs, etc. remember Blockfish? That was a lifeline to musicians at the time and even that had more control Than your plugin and hid complex settings on another screen that resembled a panel. Presswerk is its spiritual descendent. www.kvraudio.com/product/blockfish_by_digitalfishphonesnot a pro audio audience who can hear what a 50ms release does to a drum and that you need the working very fast attack times on any hardware 1176 (or another limiter) to smash down treble artifacts from equipment malfunction and synths. I’ve used Kotelnikov and even the old Omnipressor plugin to do that in the past. |

I personally would consider the slowest attack time of an 1176 (and the setting of our VU compressor’s attack time) being .2ms to be an extremely fast attack time and would instead gravitate to another style of compression if my intent was to preserve the integrity of the transient information I am compressing. However that’s just my subjective opinion. But I do appreciate your feedback and "harsh" criticism! Like I said, the other products you mentioned are all phenomenal products and it's important to note that I've never marketed the product strictly to "pro audio" engineers. It is marketed to audio engineers and music creators who will enjoy and appreciate the workflow and sonic results they get from using the plugin. Clearly that's not you... and that's totally ok!

Get some rap vocals to show the Waves audience how in your face this can get for example. That "plugin 1176" sound is popular and this is way better than the Waves CLA one and Waves sells that pumpy crap that might as well not have an active knob for 70 bucks. All you need to do is market this as faster, easier, better, and cheaper than the Waves CLA Classic Compressors bundle rather than what people who use other plugins or hardware can get out of them.
You should also set up clickable examples on your site with wet and dry of a bunch of different genres like U-he, Plugin Alliance, and Fuse do. Plugin Alliance and Fuse just embed soundcloud links and it works perfectly fine.

We all know what 'slowest attack/fastest release' 1176 sounds like. When I need that sound, the vu comp is an easy and fast result, better sounding than the usual 76 plugin suspects, and with that added bonus of auditioning a few revision flavors. While I stand by my comment about the THD being much too high (I own hw versions of all three 76 models in this plugin and NONE of them distort as much as the plug does for a given input/gain reduction amount, particularly the D which is my personal favorite hw revision), the option to turn down the THD minimizes that criticism. I still wish Eddie would find a better auto gain scheme. As Sam notes, it's an inherently imperfect solution, but the Eddie's approach is uniquely ineffective in compared to the various other imperfect examples from other devs. This is true of the Kiive stuff too; it's not just limited to Sam's plug. Eddie is my favorite dev when it comes to saturation and compression, but this sticking point is a miss. Eddie - if you read this, one super simple and helpful thing would be to allow auto gain to remain 'on' even when the user adjusts the output knob, and to not 'reset' the output gain when engaging auto gain. That way, the user can refine the gain staging and in/out relationship to suit the material and compression amount, but still easily audition different settings. |

It's worth noting that my units that are modeled in this plugin are all highly modified and tweaked DIY builds, hence the major differences in THD you are experiencing when comparing to your own hardware units. 2. Your auto linking recommendation is a limitation of the plugin development's build feature that I mentioned in my previous comment. We'll absolutely have an update to that when it becomes available to us. |

Just for balance I'd like to say I like the way Purafied VU sounds and don't miss the attack and release controls. Finding the sound and workflow great for my taste. Thanks for your support! Glad you are enjoying working with the plug-in! |
