| Description: | CPHN FETTY A free (for beta test stage) 1176-inspired FET compressor/limiter for Max for Live. CPHN FETTY is built for fast, punchy, input-driven compression with a classic FET-style workflow: Drive the Input harder for more gain reduction, trim with Output, and choose between 4, 8, 12, 20, or ALL ratio modes. It is not a circuit clone, but a musical approximation focused on the recognizable behavior: fast attack, quick program-dependent release, assertive gain reduction, parallel compression, and a clean vintage-style GR meter. Features: Stereo Max for Live Audio Effect 1176-style fixed-threshold, input-driven compression Ratio modes: 4, 8, 12, 20, ALL Reversed Attack/Release behavior, clockwise = faster Program-dependent release Mix control for parallel compression Stereo Link control Detector HPF Optional Auto Gain Optional analog-style noise Color/Saturation control, defaulting clean at 0 Custom gain-reduction VU meter Compact Ableton-friendly UI Best used on vocals, drums, bass, room mics, parallel buses, and anything that needs fast compression with attitude. ALL mode is intentionally more aggressive and pumpy for crush-style effects. Preset Descriptions Vocal Leveler Smooth, steady vocal compression with moderate 4:1 control. Good for keeping vocals present without making them feel crushed. Vocal Aggro More forward and assertive vocal compression. Higher ratio, faster timing, and more color for energetic or dense mixes. Bass Control Slower attack with moderate compression to keep bass stable while preserving some note attack and weight. Drum Smash ALL-mode parallel-style drum crushing. Fast, aggressive, pumpy, and meant for excitement rather than transparency. Parallel Room Crush Heavy ALL-mode compression with low Mix for room mics, drum buses, ambience, and exaggerated sustain. Gentle Color Minimal compression with added tone. Useful when you want the device’s character more than obvious gain reduction. This is a native Max for Live device made as an 1176-inspired compressor, not an official emulation or affiliated product. |
