With its vintage punch and modern control.
Smashburger delivers the fast, punchy sound of a classic tube compressor—the kind that makes drums explode and vocals pop in the mix.
But unlike the original, it has been enhanced with a wider range of controls, providing even greater precision, control, and the ability to mix glue without losing the ambience that made the FET legendary.
These are the finest examples of vintage gear with the controls and workflow required for modern mixes.
Built-in Flavoring
With built-in tube warming, tape-style saturation, and smooth control, the Smashburger adds dimension and expression right to the compressor.
No need to install any additional plugins – just click a button to add that extra edge to your mix.
Achieve the perfect effect
Want a sharper or smoother sound before compression kicks in? Shaper is a kind of built-in transient generator.
Increase the volume to increase the attack, decrease it to soften the sound. Perfect for taming playful snares or adding extra force to your hits.
Parallel Compression Simplified:
Parallel compression typically involves duplicating tracks, routing via busses, and balancing levels. In Smashburger, this is easily accomplished with a dedicated Wet/Dry knob, allowing you to achieve an aggressive, New York-style sound without leaving the plugin.
