A Vintage Compressor with Analog Soul — for Free
In a digital world increasingly obsessed with analog warmth, Noirsonance delivers a gift to producers, engineers, and sonic nostalgics alike. With B-Comp Lite, their free VST/AU plugin for Windows and macOS, the brand distills the essence of vintage bus compression into an elegant, minimalist tool that’s both intuitive and deeply musical.
A Taste of Classic Glue
Inspired by legendary analog bus compressors, B-Comp Lite brings the sonic glue and punch of classic mixbus units right into your DAW. Whether you’re gluing a drum bus, tightening a final mix, or adding character to a vocal chain, B-Comp Lite is more than just a utility—it’s a subtle colorist.
While the “Lite” label may suggest a stripped-down experience, make no mistake: this plugin delivers real sonic heft. Noirsonance focused on retaining the vintage feel and dynamic response that made those analog giants iconic. The plugin offers just the right amount of controls: Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, and Make-up Gain, allowing for quick, efficient workflows without sacrificing flexibility.
Transparent or Characterful? Your Call.
Thanks to its finely tuned behavior, B-Comp Lite can act as both a transparent compressor or a mojo box depending on how you push it. Use it subtly on a stereo mix to tighten low-end and stabilize transients, or crank the ratio and slow down the attack to punch up drums with vintage smack.
Its GUI is sleek and dark, true to Noirsonance’s aesthetic—easy on the eyes, responsive, and resizable. No distractions, just focus on the sound.
Cross-Platform, No Strings Attached
Available as a VST3 and AU plugin for both Windows and macOS, B-Comp Lite runs smoothly across all major DAWs. It’s a free download—no license keys, no email capture, no demo limitations. Just straight-up analog-style compression at your fingertips.
