Rough Rider 3 VST Download Free
Rough Rider is a sidechain compressor with a slightly "vintage" style bite and a unique warm sound.
The front panel layout is the same as most hardware compressors, making it easy to use. A quick overview of the controls:
relationship:
The ratio controller works logarithmically. Full counterclockwise is 1.
1, full clockwise is 1.
- The 12 o'clock position is 1.
10, so everything to the left of center is single digits, and everything to the right is essentially "nuclear bust." Attack and Release:
Since you omitted the actual time value, you should use your ears like Hemen did in Age of Myths.
meters:
The big dial in the middle of the UI is the gain reduction meter. It basically tells you how much compression is occurring.
sensitivity:
Today it's usually called "threshold", but I think "sensitivity" will always make more sense. Turning to the right essentially gives you more compression. Turned all the way to the right, it becomes a distortion box whose tone is adjusted by Ratio, Attack, and Release.
shape:
30 dB of gain to compensate for attenuation by the compressor.
Active:
From the front panel, this is just an on/off switch, but when automated, strange things happen…
MIDI learning:
Like all our products, the VST version also comes with MIDI Learn. Download any manual from the current product line to learn how this works as it is common to all VST products. Full bandwidth button:
Turn off the built-in "warm" filter.
External sidechain input + HPF filter.
Our RoughRider compressor is one of the world's most popular dynamics processors, with over 500,000 downloads in its 10+ year lifespan and is widely used by producers around the world every day. With RoughRider3, we added an external sidechain input to the original and added the ability to turn off the built-in "warming" filter (FULL BANDWIDTH button) for more accurate measurements.
