About ShapeShifter
Hard to get controlled, upfront dynamics? Not with ShapeShifter on the channel. Under the hood it's a serious compressor; on top it's refreshingly simple. It gives you hands-on control over attack and release with a sound that never gets brittle. On drums, vocals and the mix bus it's a no-brainer, but it goes well beyond that too. Set up on Windows in VST3, AU, AAX and start using it right away.
