Two Compressors in One
At Sweetwater, compression is a food group; essential kit for any studio. Offering quick and easy two-fader dynamic optimization and mono/stereo operation, the Waves MV2 compression plug-in is unique in that it offers both high- and low-level compressors, giving you two ways to optimize your dynamics. MV2 also automatically applies dither, which compensates for digital quantization errors and guarantees a great-sounding signal.

Waves MV2 Compression Plug-in at a Glance:- Low-level compression
- High-level compression
Low-level compression is, essentially, the opposite of standard high-level compression (in which any signal above the set threshold is attenuated). With the MV2 low-level compression function, any signal below your set threshold is compressed upward, resulting in increased gain. Your dynamic range is compressed by boosting low levels, while leaving high levels alone.
High-level compressionWaves equipped the MV2's high-level compression function with automatic makeup gain and output level control - a classic setup. You control the compressor with the Threshold fader, which sets your desired amount of dynamic range compression. The automatic gain makeup function compensates for gain reduction, so your output is always consistent.
