Thanks for the gift.
The compressor and limiter especially are quite buggy though and have very strange range of motion. You'll actually have to internally boost the input gain a lot to get into the "correct" and fully working attack and release curves.
It's especially buggy and noticeable if you are running the recommended -18dBFS RMS signals into the plugin.. at these levels you get virtually no movement of the compression unless you severely bump up the input gain all the way to +24dB. Even at 0dBFS signals you get better compression action (faster attack/release) when bumping up the input past -0dBFS.. which naturally can cause other issues within the plugin.
So yeah, good freebie but at the moment it's compressor is very weird and difficult to operate. I suspect it's gain structure is internally wrongly calibrated within the Aqua framework.
EDIT: Example) (original drumloop has peaks at about -3dBFS and overall energy at around -12dBFS RMS)
1) Input gain at +6dB, Compressor 4:1, Threshold at around -15dB, Fastest attack/release combo (+ FST button in)
= about 10dB of GR, attack is very fast and splashy, release pumping nicely and overall killing the drumbus with a good smacking
2) Input gain at -18dB, same exact compressor settings except Treshold down at around -38dB to reach similar gain reduction levels
= Extremely slow almost 100% non-moving compression. No splashy attack and a super slow release where it never really goes into the release stage at all.. yet compressor is set to it's fastest possible time constants.
So yeah, something is buggy/weird with the incoming gain versus threshold. It's as if the sampled compression range is offset completely wrong compared to the rest of the plugins main operational range.
