Dragon Fire introduces Tonal Compression: a monstrous new and easier way to tame and color the dynamic of your tracks. On top of that, our Shape technology allows you to finely sculpt the flavor and behaviour of the compressor algorithm itself.

Sculpt your compressor:
When we started to conceptualize a 'denise style' compressor, we wanted to go beyond emulating a classic compressor. It's after all denise's mission to take inspiration from the analog world, but create plugins with their own unique soul, craziness and character. We wanted our compressor to give you the freedom to tune the sound of the compressor itself - imagine fine-tuning the compressor's saturation amount based on the gain reduction, or tweaking the envelope follower to sound more analog or vintage. Secondly, we wanted to make compressing multiple bands easy, controlled and more flexible than with a traditional multiband compressor. To achieve this we integrated the push-pull technology from our popular God Mode, so you can target the compression towards specific elements in your mix, like the snare in a full beat. These new features and technology made us rethink the mixing process entirely.

Finally a compressor that does not try to reproduce hardware or follow the usual path of compressor plugins.
This compressor brings both multiband and spectral compression as a true and refreshing innovation.
Features
Dragon Fire with its Shape technology offers multiple creative features to tune the sound of the compressor, from vintage to transparent and anything in between. Create that original and vintage sound, for example with the:
RMS and Knee functions to soften the compression sound.
Interpolate between a fast and slow release curve for an 'optic' style response.
Adaptive saturation: This lets you control the amount of saturation based on the gain reduction.
Besides its Shape features it offers a:
Push-pull graph: an easy-to-use, eq-style graph to control how the compressor reacts to different frequency ranges.
Transparent clipper function at the end of the signal chain.
Easy switch to use the compressor in classic mode as a single band compressor.
Comes with various presets including instruments like guitars, bass, vocals & drums.
