I love tricomp on lead vocals. The sound it gives off is 🔥

[@spokansas]

Valuable overview of a plugin I previously ignored. Thanks Mike!

[@studioonerevealed]

My pleasure :)

[@fredfox3851]

Thanks Mike! Another great tutorial.

[@studioonerevealed]

Very welcome

[@Kentavious444]

Hey thanx for this video. You are right, I did overlook this one!

[@studioonerevealed]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Ray-um3if]

Hi Mike, cool tip, thank you.

[@studioonerevealed]

No problem 👍

[@harmonicabhi-abhijeetsg7581]

Thank you so much sir 🌹

[@Traynoramp08]

I use this at my final mixed!

Top ✨👌🏼

[@jspacone]

I love Tricomp! I like to use it on my mix bus, and it seems to give everything a 3 dimensional sound. It makes all the elements stand out from each other.

[@vitomasilotti]

Thanks for the feedback. New to the DAW myself. Have to eventually check it out...

[@jspacone]

@@vitomasilotti One thing I did not mention in my original comment is that I had a SERIES of compressors on my mix bus. I had at least two, and sometimes three, one after another, starting with an SSL style bus compressor first, and the Tricomp last, each providing just a tiny, incremental bit of compression. I'm a total newbie, and I have no idea what I'm doing, so please don't take this as expert advice. However, this technique sounded great to me!

[@djloopbeatzz1645]

Thanks for the information on this little plug that I never use, I have to stop ignoring my stock plug-ins 😊

[@studioonerevealed]

Lol, glad to help!

[@thehighdeath5562]

I discovered quickly that a little saturation goes a long way. I literally have it at 0.5 with a 100% mix or, if I go any higher, I back of the mix to somewhere around 50%. It really does add a clarity and definition. Really noticeable when you switch between active and bypass.

[@studioonerevealed]

So true!

[@PrantoKoX]

Nice video!
👍🏻
The problem of this plugin, IMHO, is that it stupidly attenpts to look "like hardware" (in this case a piece of hardware that doesn't even exist, except for the Drawmer-ish ripoff colours), and in doing so it takes on some totally unnecesaary limitations - the switched fixed attack times, the lack of front panel space, and the overall lack of precise control or clear, decent metering of the gain reduction happening in each of its 3 bands.
Also, the lack of a dB legending for the gain reduction and the mislabeled controls, e.g. "high" and "low"instead of "crossover points", are seriouslly silly, and irritating.

[@CemeterySoulsMusic]

That, I find, is the basic design methodology for all of studio one's plugins. Super annoying

[@truckdriver8310]

Hello is tricomp is to increased the volume with clarity? I use for vocal boost

[@ezekielnsengi2480]

How much db that plugin is reducing
