| Description: | HEXA is a versatile Max for Live compressor offering six distinct compression models, from smooth optical glue to aggressive FET-style punch. Designed to integrate natively with Ableton Live, HEXA gives you precision control over your dynamics—without the clutter. With flexible sidechain routing, adaptive envelope detection, intelligent knee shaping, and a built-in true peak limiter, HEXA adapts to your mix in real time. Choose from Tube, VCA, Optical, and more—each mode tailored with custom behaviors and saturation for unique sonic character. Effortless to dial in, yet deep enough to master, HEXA brings modern compression with surgical precision and analog-inspired warmth. Whether you're tightening transients, gluing buses, or coloring a master, HEXA is the one compressor that does it all. Your dynamics. Your sound. Six ways better. FEATURES: • 6 Compression Styles – Choose from Tube, VCA, FET, Opto, Modern Digital, and Saturated for tailored dynamics and tonal character. • Advanced Sidechain Support – External sidechain input with filter and gain controls for precise ducking. • Sidechain Filter Section – Sculpt sidechain input with frequency and Q controls for cleaner, more musical compression. • True Peak Limiter – Built-in final stage limiter to prevent inter-sample clipping. • Lookahead Control – Compensate for transients with optional lookahead for smoother gain reduction. • Makeup Gain – Maintain loudness after compression with precise output control. • Wet/Dry Mix – Dial in parallel compression easily with the blend knob. • Visual Gain Reduction Meter – Real-time, smoothed metering to track your compression transparently. • Auto Release Option – Dynamically adapts release time based on program material. • Flexible Envelope Shaping – Adjustable attack, release, ratio, knee, and threshold for full control. • Custom Knee Curves Per Type – Each compression mode includes its own response and knee behavior. • Subtle Analog Coloration – Certain types (Tube, FET, VCA) include harmonic saturation for added warmth. • Built for Speed – Lightning-fast UI and minimal CPU usage. • Ableton Native Look – Matches Ableton Live’s themes for seamless visual integration. -- INSTALATION GUIDE : Inside the zip file you have an file : 1.
