Software Compatibility

Most software is compatible with both Mac and Windows computers, but check to make sure.

If you're using Pro Tools, AAX plug-ins (or RTAS for older versions) are what you need. Most other Mac DAWs support AU plug-ins. VST is compatible with a number of Mac and Windows programs. Be sure you choose plug-ins that work with your DAW!

You Want This Compressor in Your Virtual Rack!

At Sweetwater, compression is a food group - the most-used signal processing - so we're understandably picky. One compressor plug-in that's garnered rave reviews for its scrumptious sonic character and versatility is FabFilter Pro-C 2. Sporting an innovative interface plus flexible side chaining and routing options, Pro-C 2 gives you high-quality compression and useful program-dependent presets.
