What it is
The Compression Laboratory is a bundle of two buss compressors from M Media Audio. Element 32 is a germanium-based buss compressor with a Bias control that moves from clean glue to thick, saturated character. Fifty Kilowatt is a three-stage broadcast-style leveler that combines a gated AGC, a program compressor, and a peak clipper.
Who it's for
Mix engineers and producers who want character-driven compression on the mix buss, drum buss, or vocal chains. It suits anyone who wants a couple of distinctly colored compressors beyond a clean, transparent one.

- External sidechain input and True Peak ceiling detection are included
- Each plugin ships with 15 factory presets
