Spiky Synth Compression (synth)

from WMD Compressor by Matttech Modular Demos

/

about

This demonstrates how you can add a lovely bite and spikiness to otherwise flat-sounding synth parts.

Four bars of the dry signal are at the start, and then every four bars after that I change the compressor settings, adding more compression each time (lowered THRESHOLD, higher RATIO). ATTACK and RELEASE were set to be very fast.

The second recording is an extended version, where I have set the compressor for some ridiculously spiky compression, and then I gradually blend in the dry signal using the MIX knob, eventually returning to the completely dry signal. On this last recording I have set the ATTACK and RELEASE to absolute minimum to create the spikiest sound possible.

Settings: The DETECTION switch is set to ADAPTIVE, and the KNEE set to HARD.
