Atlas Compressor: The Official Source Audio Demo

Музыка

The Atlas Compressor offers a comprehensive collection of compression circuits that perfectly capture the tone and feel of the industry’s most sought-after compressors. Straight out of the box, Atlas delivers six different styles of compression, ranging from classic stompbox compressors like the now-discontinued Diamond Optical Compressor to high-end rack units such as the snappy 1176 compressor and the smooth and gentle LA2A optical compressor. Atlas also features advanced dual-band compression, which provides an independent set of controls for both the high and low frequencies. Each compression engine has onboard controls for Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Output, Tone, and Mix, allowing for fine-tuned control over the compact One Series hardware.

    This Company is SO SMART to have finally cracked the secondary function usage in a pedal. I have multiple high end pedals that you have to hold buttons to use secondary and with no idea what the function is without the manual. They have not only made a "momentary" secondary window here, but ALSO put an abbreviation of that it is next to function one's text. Its no secret Source Audio are geniuses. I own the Ventris also, it blows away my other big box reverbs. It is in a league of its own and lightyears ahead of everything.

    I would love to see a demo of this pedal on synthesizers and drum machines. I think this would be excellent for someone's live hardware setup to have on the end of their chain. I think a lot of your customers are more than guitar players and would like to see demo's on more types of gear.

    We actually made a few factory presets geared at synth and drum machines. There is an external side chain mode that is very nice on synths (available in compression, gate, and dynamic eq varieties). There's also one I did tailored for shaping snare samples, but which works for percussion in general. I may do a specific kick one as well or maybe Kick and Snare Dual mono.

    What's really sold me on this pedal is that through the Neuro editing app, you can do so much more with this pedal than just compression. Parametric and Graphic EQ (Both active at the same time!) Noise Gate. A whole host of compressor presets and variables to tweak. Oh yeah, it also buffers. Oh yeah, stereo input/output. This thing is beautiful.

    Hello source Audio. I am a huge fan of the 1990's compressors which are Ibanez CP10 and the Boss CS-2. They are magical. And sound better than most newer comps such as the CS-3 for example. Does this have anything to do with their analog circuitry? I'm afraid of ditching them for a digital compressor. Which algorithm of yours would you suggest to replace those? Edit: I'm a guitar player btw

  • @sourceaudioeffects

    Yes, the Atlas can get a sound like the CS-2. The CS-2 is a VCA style compressor and that is one of the compressor options in the Neuro Editor. We don't have a specific CS-2 based preset yet, but it is on Christopher Venter's list of future sounds, so I would say that it will show up in our list of Factory Presets within the month. For the time being, you might try the Atlas' Studio Snap compressor - that one lives in the STUDIO toggle switch position in the first bank of presets (Green LED). Studio Snap is a VCA style compressor with a very snappy attack.

    I never thought too much about Source Audio previously, other than Adrian Belew and Reeves Gabrel use their stuff. I bought a Vertigo based on some demo videos (I normally ignore demo videos - digital compression/Mp3, PC speakers, recording done with expensive mics, amps and DAWs, what are we actually hearing?). After getting the Vertigo, I was *sold* on SA. The Atlas was next on my list, along with the Gemini and Nemesis. Nemesis is a terrible name, though. Couldn't they have come up with something else? Why would I want to buy a Nemesis? Khan!!! Then there's the ZIO - very interested, but holy cow is that expensive. You can't have a compressor pedal without an Orange Squeeze, Ross and Dyna Comp. So many people in this video with nice beards. Unless you're the president, do you have to be bearded to work for Source Audio?

    Very well! We have an external side chain mode as well for triggering the compressor with an external input such as a kick or snare from sequencers. You can also filter a whole kit sample to just the low end using the side chain low pass filter, if you don't have isolated tracks to feed into Input 2.
