    Le meilleurs des mondes

    Waves H-CompPublié le 07/05/19 à 00:09

    Je l’utilise avec Windows 10 1709 en 64 bit avec Cubase pro 10

    L’installation se passe comme d’habitude avec Waves center en ligne avec autorisation en fin d’installation.

    Il est stable de consomme rien…

    Sont format VST/ VST3 ou audio unit pour Logic et AAX pour Protools
    Il fonctionne en audiorack et multirack. Soudgrid et LV1 bref tous les formats

    Point de vue fréquence comme d’habitude on gère jusqu’à 192 khz sauf en TDM ou maxi on est à 48 Khz

    Ce qui est intéressant c’est que Waves a utilisé tout ce qu’ils avaient déjà développé en modélisant du matériel classique qui ont été inclus dans la collection SSL 4000, V-Series et The API Collection.

    H- Comp Hybrid compresseur qui combine la modélisation des comportements / des transformateurs / des tubes / et des transistors, ça c'est pas mal du tout...

    Un truc pas mal du tout aussi la fonction Punch.

    Elle permet de laisser passer quelques transitoires à travers le compresseur et rajoute comme son nom l’indique du PUNCH, sur un kick j'aime bien sur une basse aussi.

    Ensuite on trouvera les commandes classique de Seuil de déclenchement , attaque, Ratio,
    Release, rien de bien nouveau.

    Waves à ajouter un Limiter débrayable en sortie qui empêche les pics supérieurs à 0 dBFS. bon ça peut être utile si on juste une petite crête à un endroit et que le réglage du compresseur est au top et qu’on ne veut rien changer.

    Un truc vraiment pas mal du tout c’est le paramètre Sync.

    En fait le release va se caler au tempo de votre DAW. Ainsi les temps de relâchement d’un kick ou d’une caisse claire sont souvent liés à l' intervalle entre les frappes de batterie ou d' autres frappes aiguës . Donc les temps de libération correspondent au BPM de la piste… voilà l’idée c’est pas idiot…

    Analogique Modes permet de choisir entre 4 modes analogiques qui ont été modélisés. Ils correspondent au son que nous donnaient divers compresseurs analogiques.

    Dernier point la commande mix…. Comme sur une reverb DRY/WET cette commande Mix le signal compressé avec celui d'entrée d'origine. C’est un paramètre que l’on ne trouva pas souvent sur les compresseurs classiques mais plutôt sur les multibandes…

    Le son est vraiment intéressant. On peut vraiment avec un même plugin créer des univers différents… il passe partout… j’ai envie de dire qu’il offre le meilleur des mondes du compresseur

    Vu le prix je pense que c'est un bon plugin qui offrira des couleurs sonores divers et variées alors vous pouvez y aller...

    Décent sonore du compresseur analogique

    Waves H-CompPublié le 02/12/12 à 23:19
    contenu en anglais (contenu en anglais)
    The H-Comp compressor is a plug-in by Waves to be used inside a DAW. Installation of all Waves product is pretty easy. With v9, you no longer need an iLok, any USB stick can be used to run the software on multiple computers. Authentication can also occur without a dongle if your computer is connected to the internet.

    The H-Comp is part of the 'hybrid' line of plug-ins from Waves. These plug-ins are marketed to have an analog sound with digital functionality. H-comp definitely has some features that aren't typically found on analog compressors. There is a 'mix' knob to blend in an uncompressed signal to achieve the popular parallel compression internally, removing the need to have duplicate tracks to achieve the same processing. The release control can be synced to the tempo of the host DAW. I don't know of any hardware compressor that can do that. This functionality might be useful if you are trying to side-chain a kick drum to compress a synch. This makes sure the pumping is in sync with the tempo of your song.

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    The H-Comp has most of the typical controls of a compressor - attack, release, threshold, ratio, and gain. There is no control for the knee of your compressor. I am not discerning enough to tell the difference between the different choices on the analog dial. Number '3' sounds like some high frequencies are filtered. The other settings are hard for me to tell a difference between. With other products from Waves, switching on 'analog' really just adds some low level noise to simulate analog hiss.

    The punch knob seems like a great idea. A huge reason to compress drums is to get some extra punch. Usually when I have used the H-Comp I haven't like the results of the 'punch' knob, so I usually leave it at zero.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The H-Comp does a decent job of adding the analog sound of a compressor to your tracks. There are times when you want a compressor to reduce the amplitude of your tracks without any noticeable coloration. This it not that kind of compressor, it definitely adds some decent 'color' to your tracks.

    I think the CLA Compressors have a better sound if you want to 'color' your tracks. However, you don't have the options of the 'mix' with the CLA Compressors to get the parallel compression internally. When I am in a hurry, the H-Comp does a decent job at getting the analog sound of a compressor.

    Il première démo

    The H Comp is a compressor made by Waves Plug-ins. It is a powerful dynamic processor that will take the tubes, transistors and transformers, together they will put out some powerful stuff if you learn to use them properly. The interface of the H Comp is very simple, you have an Analog Dial, Output Dial, Ratio Dial, Mix Dry/Wet Dial , Punch and Attack Dials, the main Threshold Dial and a Release Dial. Everything is on the main screen of the plug in and there are no sub menus or hard to navigate or read texts. The H Comp does offer a demo that you can download to decide if you want to make the purchase. Many people have compared the H Comp the CLA compressors bundle. But they CLA compressors bundle is modeled after classic hardware compressors and if you don’t have a lot of knowledge with those classic compressors you mine as well just go ahead and go with H Comp.


    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    I have installed H Comp on two different machines, one running Windows Vista and one running Windows 7. It has worked great on both and has never gave me any issues. I have used this plug in with Cubase, Ableton and Pro Tools. It has been very stable no matter where I have used it at. I have been using it for almost a year now.


    OVERALL OPINION

    Overall, you really cant go wrong with something from Waves Plug Ins. Every time I use one of their products I am completely happy with it, and best of all they give you a chance to use it before you pay for it so you know if its exactly something you want to spend your money on. I am very happy with my purchased. You will love how easy it is to use this compressor and you will start using it a lot and maybe even as your main compressor. The price is very reasonable for the quality of a plug in that you are getting with H Comp.

    The Waves Ltd. H-Comp wasn’t hard to install at all and after getting everything in synch with my iLok I had it up rather quickly.  I didn’t have any compatibility errors and really didn’t have any problems getting it up and running.  The interface of the software is laid out smartly and even though there is kind of a lot going on it won’t take users too long to get used to everything.  The plug-in has a ton of different parameters including knobs for ratio, punch, attack, threshold, release, mix, and output.  The release also has a great feature where you can synch it up to the BPM of the song that you are using this with.  There is also a knob for the amount of ‘analog’ that you want, which is a new thing in Waves’ new line of hybrid plug-ins.  There is also a meter that you can set to either show input, output, or gain reduction and a button to use this strictly as a limiter as well.  A manual wasn’t necessary for me, but for new users might not be a bad idea if you aren’t all that experienced.

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    I have used the Waves Ltd. H-Comp on a Mac G5 that runs with a Pro Tools HD system.  I’ve never had a problem running a few of them at a single time, but generally will only use one or two at a time as I like to mix and match different compressors.  It really depends on what type of system you are running this on because this will take up a decent amount of processing power, but if you have an adequate machine you shouldn’t have too much trouble with it.  Pro Tools LE users will probably run into more problems than HD ones, as is the case in general with plug-ins.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I only recently started using the Waves Ltd. H-Comp as it is a fairly new plug-in, but already I can see that it is definitely one of the better compression plug-ins that Waves has released.  It sounds great on a variety of instruments, especially vocals and guitars.  However, it offers a ton of control over your sound so it can really be used on anything.  The new line of hybrid plug-ins that Waves has released are pretty impressive and the Waves Ltd. H-Comp is a fine example of what they have to offer.

    Tube et compresseur transistor

    Waves H-CompPublié le 28/06/11 à 04:48

    The H-Comp compressor is a tube and transistor compressor built into one little plugin. It's a very unique idea to try to get the warmth and dynamics of a tube compressor with the precision and predictability of a transistor based compressor. The plugin itself is very simple to use, but you can do quite a bit with it. You have knobs for the ratio, attack, threshold, punch, release, output, mix, analog signal, a button to allow for it to act as a limiter, the ability to side chain and a sync button. Waves has tons of compressors, and this is one of the better ones. However, it can get a bit overwhelming with just how many compressors they have. I still have trouble choosing certain compressors at times with how many they offer in the Mercury bundle. There were no compatibility issues with this, and I can't comment on the manual as I never read it.

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    Waves has a fairly strong reputation out there for making some of the most stable plugins out there. Most don't take up too much memory when using them, and this is no exception. The biggest issue this plugin has is that it's not 64 bit. While it doesn't really matter for me, it might matter for others. I'm lucky enough that Logic Pro has a built in bridge to allow the application to run 32 bit plugins inside of a 64 bit DAW. I'm not sure if other 64 bit DAWs have that with OS X, though. You'll have to contact the company and make sure. I never experienced any crashes, and I don't really expect to since everything runs so smoothly. Then again, I have a Mac Pro with OS 10.6.x, and these machines are known for their stability.

    OVERALL OPINION

    With so many compressors out there offered by Waves, it's real easy to get compressor overload. This basically combines analog and digital compressors all into one to give a really cool sound to the overall mix. I like using this on the master bus to get some unique tones, but I still gravitate towards other compressors at times. Be sure to check out its limiter and side chain features, too.
