McDSP 6030 Ultimate Compressor

The next generation of dynamic range control technology

The McDSP 6030 Ultimate Compressor includes 10 compressor modules and 1,500+ presets.

The 6030 Ultimate Compressor is the next generation of dynamic range control technology. Building from the entire McDSP compression algorithm code base, the 6030 adds new sonic capabilities, stunning new interfaces, and quality only McDSP could deliver. Using the popular module format, the 6030 Ultimate Compressor offers ten different compressors. All of these designs are by McDSP – some completely from the ground up, while others are emulations of existing gear with unique variations created by McDSP.

Each 6030 Ultimate Compressor module is easy to operate, and yet has enough sophistication for the most discerning professional. Whatever your style, from smooth tube emulations to aggressive solid-state designs, the 6030 Ultimate Compressor has a custom-made dynamic range control module that is just right for you.

 

 

Amazing Vocals

The 6030 Ultimate Compressor modules best suited for vocal and dialog applications include the U670, Moo Tube, and iComp modules.

Gigantic Drums

The SST’76, FRG444, and D357 modules are great for dealing with drum tracks.

Extreme Versatility

Instruments like piano, keyboards, guitar and more generally do well with the 6030 Ultimate Compressor modules with more control.

McDSP 6030 Ultimate Compressor modules

u670U670

Based on the acclaimed Fairchild 670, a new set of attack ballistics was created to accommodate modern production styles, the ‘warmth’ factor was tweaked, and the U670 was born.

moo tubeMoo Tube

An all-tube design emulation, with some unique twists. Mid-range sensitivity, attack, and recovery time ranges, and output frequency response characteristics were all reworked by McDSP engineering.

icompiComp

Attack and release times are not adjustable but are instead automatically updated based on user-selected threshold and ratio control values. Good on songs headed to iTunes.

opto-cOpto-C/Opto-L

These Opto models use McDSP-designed key signal circuits for an improved response from the originals. The Opto models also use a different release characteristic, because we like to tweak!

british-cBritish-C

The British-C model offers the standard compressor control set, but McDSP added internal smarts to prevent unwanted distortion, even at extreme compression settings – not unlike other high-end analog compressors from this part of the world.

over ezOver EZ

The Over EZ module incorporates a smooth knee response with a flexible control configuration, making it useful in a variety of situations.

sstSST’76

The SST’76 is a fast reactive design that sounds great on drums and other percussive sources. The solid-state (SST) circuit model uses a McDSP-designed key circuit to boot.

frg444FRG444

Referred to as ‘The Frog’, the FRG444 uses a moderately aggressive compression design for a more, well, aggressive kind of sound. The FRG444 will give you goosebumps, especially on big rock drum kits.

d357D357

The D357 is the most aggressive compressor in the 6030 collection. An LED-style gain reduction meter is used to display the rapid dynamic range control changes the D357 is capable of enacting on unsuspecting audio.

McDSP System Requirements

McDSP HD and Native plug-ins are compatible with Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo, FL Studio, Ableton Live, LUNA, Reaper, Sonar, Studio One, and other DAWs that support AAX, AU, and/or VST3 plug-in formats.

Note as of v7.0, VST is no longer supported. VST versions of v6 McDSP plug-ins will no longer be updated, and will be uninstalled.
McDSP Native plug-ins support AAX Native, AU, and VST3 plug-in formats.

McDSP HD plug-ins additionally support the AAX DSP plug-in format, as well as AAX Native, AU, and VST3 plug-in formats.

McDSP plug-ins support Mac OS 10.13.x (High Sierra), 10.14.x (Mojave), 10.15.x (Catalina), 11.x (Big Sur), 12.x (Monterey), 13.x (Ventura), 14.x (Sonoma), and Windows 10 & 11.

Mac OS version 10.12.x (Sierra) may work, but is not officially supported.
Earlier Mac OS versions are not officially supported.


McDSP plug-ins run natively on Intel and Apple silicon processors.

McDSP plug-ins require an iLok2 or iLok3 USB Smart Key, or an iLok License Manager account and an iLok Cloud session for authorization. Each McDSP v7 plug-in contains two activations per authorization.

McDSP HD plug-ins also support the VENUE S6L systems. Note McDSP VENUE plug-ins are packaged in a VENUE specific installer available on the McDSP web site.
