Analog Obsession has released Comper, a free compressor effect plugin for DAWs running on Windows and macOS.
Comper has two compressors in series: a top-side compressor and a bottom-side second compressor. The top compressor has no external side-chain feature, whilst the bottom one has both internal and external side-chain features. This is a “Serial Compressor” which is great for coloring and also, taming peaks at the same time.
Each compressor comes with three compression modes: VCA, FET, and OPTO, a basic “switchable” mode compressor. You can use these modes together, for example, you can select VCA and OPTO or VCA and FET, or any of them, or all of them at the same time. These circuits are parallel and they will be summed according to their count.
