Woodpressor is a high-end audio compressor. It is both a standalone app supporting IAA (Inter-App Audio) and an AUv3 audio unit plugin. It has all the classic compressor controls like "Threshold", "Attack", "Release", "Ratio", etc but also has some extra features not commonly found on other compressors : - Auto gain - Tube distort - Adaptive Threshold - Non-linear Release - Side chain filter (bandpass, highpass, lowpass or notch) - Makeup Gain Limiter - Brick-wall Limiter It also has it's own side chain mechanism as currently no or very little AUv3 hosts implement a side chain. Woodpressor can save/load user presets, especially useful in standalone mode (or for AUv3 hosts not having their own preset store) User Presets are written to iCloud Drive which makes them automatically available (and synced, and backed-up) on all devices (and all host apps or DAW's) running Woodpressor.
Version History - Re-instated Side Chain Send and Receive modes for hosts not supporting the regular side chain (LoopyPro, ...) 1.14.3 04/18/2023 Woodpressors inserted on different tracks can now be linked : the Gain Reduction will be calculated on a weighted sum of all the channels of all the tracks. Also the main compressor parameters can be linked. 1.14 04/10/2023 - Fixed a potential bug resulting in invalid output values in the non-linear release section causing subsequent plugins to crash/fail. 1.11 11/17/2021 Added AUv3 multi-bus (side chain) support 1.10 02/19/2020 Added a Midi side chain : received note-on velocities are used to determine the compressor gain reduction. This allows for example to have a midi track behave like a drum side chain track to create pumping effects. 1.9 11/12/2019 - fixed User preset subfolders (add a colon (:) between subfolder name and preset name) - factory presets can now be copied to User presets - added more presets 1.8.1 03/01/2019 - Added Brick-wall Limiter - Added Clip Led - Added Max dB Out value bug fixes/improvements : - fixed small dependency from Tube Class A amount on Distort amount - BPFilter Listen does not add the Makeup gain any longer (could cause clipping) 1.7 11/18/2018 - fixed gain calculation when Mix was set to negative amount and Tube distort was on. 1.6 09/26/2018 Improved Tube distortion algorithm Added separate controls for tube amp Class A (more even harmonics) and tube amp Class AB (only odd harmonics) Improved scaling of tube controls to allow more subtle effect 1.5 09/12/2018 - User presets can now be selected via Midi Program Changes. - fixed a bug in reading/showing iCloud user presets when more than 1 Woodpressor plugin was used in the host app (DAW). 1.4 08/23/2018 - User presets are now stored in iCloud Drive (when enabled), which makes them available (and synced and backed-up) on all your devices running Woodpressor. bugfixes : - AUv3 now works on Auria (Pro) - when zoomed in, panning now also works when Advanced panel is shown. 1.3 08/20/2018 - side chain now works for Cubasis2 - side chain now also works when transport is not playing - added UI zoom when Woodpressor plugin is presented in a small (host) window (Cubasis2 ...) 1.2 08/09/2018 - User Presets load/save (useful for standalone app or when the AUv3 host app does not provide a preset save/load) - Side chain send/receive (no or very little AUv3 hosts have a side chain mechanism : insert a Woodpressor on the side chain track and put it in "side send" mode, insert a Woodpressor on the track needing compression and put it in "side receive" mode) bugfixes : UI (rotaries) are now showing automation values Filter “Listen” when side chain is enabled now listens to the side chain audio 1.1 07/27/2018 1.0 07/16/2018

Also the main compressor parameters can be linked. 1.14 04/10/2023 - Fixed a potential bug resulting in invalid output values in the non-linear release section causing subsequent plugins to crash/fail. 1.11 11/17/2021 Added AUv3 multi-bus (side chain) support 1.10 02/19/2020 Added a Midi side chain : received note-on velocities are used to determine the compressor gain reduction.
This allows for example to have a midi track behave like a drum side chain track to create pumping effects. 1.9 11/12/2019 - fixed User preset subfolders (add a colon (:) between subfolder name and preset name)
- factory presets can now be copied to User presets
- added more presets 1.8.1 03/01/2019 - Added Brick-wall Limiter
- Added Clip Led
- Added Max dB Out value
bug fixes/improvements :
- fixed small dependency from Tube Class A amount on Distort amount
- BPFilter Listen does not add the Makeup gain any longer (could cause clipping) 1.7 11/18/2018 - fixed gain calculation when Mix was set to negative amount and Tube distort was on. 1.6 09/26/2018 Improved Tube distortion algorithm
Added separate controls for tube amp Class A (more even harmonics) and tube amp Class AB (only odd harmonics)
Improved scaling of tube controls to allow more subtle effect 1.5 09/12/2018 - User presets can now be selected via Midi Program Changes.
- fixed a bug in reading/showing iCloud user presets when more than 1 Woodpressor plugin was used in the host app (DAW). 1.4 08/23/2018 - User presets are now stored in iCloud Drive (when enabled), which makes them available (and synced and backed-up) on all your devices running Woodpressor.
bugfixes :
- AUv3 now works on Auria (Pro)
- when zoomed in, panning now also works when Advanced panel is shown. 1.3 08/20/2018 - side chain now works for Cubasis2
- side chain now also works when transport is not playing
- added UI zoom when Woodpressor plugin is presented in a small (host) window (Cubasis2 ...) 1.2 08/09/2018 - User Presets load/save (useful for standalone app or when the AUv3 host app does not provide a preset save/load)
- Side chain send/receive (no or very little AUv3 hosts have a side chain mechanism : insert a Woodpressor on the side chain track and put it in "side send" mode, insert a Woodpressor on the track needing compression and put it in "side receive" mode)
bugfixes :
UI (rotaries) are now showing automation values
Filter “Listen” when side chain is enabled now listens to the side chain audio 1.1 07/27/2018 1.0 07/16/2018
