SSL launched the Mac version of their free LMC-1 Compressor plug-in back in October, they have now released it as a VST effect for Windows.
Capturing the signature sound of the 'Listen Mic Compressor' from SSL's "classic" 1980s SL 4000 Series consoles, the LMC-1 delivers a compression sound perfect for crunching room mics, mangling overdriven guitars or causing sonic mayhem on a vocal track. It was originally intended to prevent overloading on a tracking room 'talkback' mic.
