Description
OTT is a free reissue of the popular, aggressive multiband compressor used by many producers
across various electronic music styles. With over 10 years of existence, OTT is one of the most popular free plugins.
This latest update to the three-band compressor brings a refreshed user interface with a more modern style.
The plugin is now available in VST3 and AAX formats and is compatible with all operating systems, including Apple Silicon processors (M1 and M1 Pro).
Key Features :
• Bi-directional Compression: The plugin simultaneously applies aggressive downward (traditional)
and upward compression. This allows you to make quiet parts louder and loud parts quieter, creating the most dense and pumped sound.
• Three Frequency Bands: Separate control of Low, Mid, and High frequencies with visualization of input signal levels and compression ratio.
Key Controls
• Depth: Adjusts the overall intensity of the effect (similar to Dry/Wet).
• Time: Scales the attack and release times for all bands at once.
• Upward/Downward: Separate controls for up and down compression intensity.
Applications
OTT remains one of the most sought-after plugins today due to its ability to instantly add sparkle and energy to tracks.
• Synths and Leads: Helps sounds cut through the mix.
• Bass: Adds clarity and a distinctive crunchy texture.
• Master: Used in small doses (Depth setting 5-15%) to add that final punch and sparkle to the entire mix.[collapse]
Key changes in v1.37 :
Version 1.37 [06/25/2023]
• Improved VST2 settings import to VST3: Added additional compatibility so that VST3 can automatically pick up settings
from older VST2 projects.
• DAW issue fixes: Users of programs like FL Studio and Cubase no longer need to manually delete the VST3 file
to force their DAW to load older settings via VST2.
• ID fixes: A VST3 ID mismatch issue that was causing
the plug-in to not load in saved projects in versions 1.33–1.34 has been permanently fixed.
