When you look at the CLA-3A plugin’s interface, you see two main parameters for controlling the compression amount and the makeup gain, labeled “gain” and “peak reduction.” Pretty straightforward, right? While I always trust my ears, it is also nice to have the CLA-3A’s VU metering display to see where the levels are hitting. Compressors also enhance and add tonal character to your audio signals. When we use compression, we either want to add punch or beef to audio tracks-say, kick drums or bass guitars-or balance the dynamic range of certain vocals and instruments. At times, it can be frustrating for up-and-coming engineers to grasp the concept of compression.
We recommend it for anybody who wants to experiment with mixing in a DAW.
Waves CLA-3A Compressor/Limiter ($49 street): The Waves CLA-3A is hands down one of the most effective and dynamic-enriching processors we have ever used.
