Experience the Quirky Character of the Vintage Hardware
The dbx 160 Compressor/Limiter plug-in is a fully licensed, faithful emulation of the legendary studio hardware, capturing the in-your-face sonics of its colorful VCA compression along with added controls for modern workflows.
Add Versatile VCA Compression to your Tracks
Whether you're using it on synths, bass guitar, or a drum bus, the dbx 160 plug-in emulates the original hardware's grabby, low-end glue and old-school character, full of the same unique nonlinearities that make it a must-have for any engineer's compressor toolkit.
Get Timeless Character, Easily
With the same simple control set and at-a-glance metering of the original, the dbx 160 plug-in makes it easy to crush a parallel drum bus, or inject subtle fatness. It can also add aggressiveness and impact to everything from guitar power chords to a hip-hop vocal.
Level Up with Modern Workflows
Along with graphic enhancements and improved VU metering, the dbx 160 plug-in's Dry/Wet Mix control lets you easily punch up a drum bus with parallel compression, while the added Sidechain Filter lets you keep the low end tight, enhancing the compressor's impact.
