Voxengo Marquis Compressor 2 Plug-In
Voxengo is happy to release a new major version of its Marquis Compressor plugin. Marquis Compressor is a “universal” compressor AAX, AU and VST plugin for professional music production applications. You’ll find a very smooth compression performance in this compressor, coupled with a harmonically-rich sound, both suitable for mixing and mastering.

Spitfire Audio, purveyors of the finest virtual instruments from the finest musical samples in the world, is proud to announce availability of ALBION V TUNDRA — the latest (fifth) entry in its widescreen range of compositional tools that provide everything needed to make modern film music out of the box, but this time by drawing inspiration from the minimalist work of Arvo Pärt and the burgeoning Nordic community, recording a 100-piece orchestra playing never- before-sampled instructions at the very edge of silence to cleverly capture the Scandinavian zeitgeist and bring it to bear upon Native Instruments’ industry-standard KONTAKT platform for all to see and hear — as of October 20.
“About 10 years ago I was listening to the radio and a work came on — Fratres by Arvo Pärt. It was one of the most profound and instantaneous connections I’ve ever had to a piece of music. Unlike a lot of orchestral works, which are steeped in the choral tradition, this didn’t sound like operatic angels from above. It was as if it seeped out of the moss in the ground. I could almost smell wet Estonian forests. I could feel the mists of Scottish lochs and Norwegian fjords. It was as if I was amongst the tundra and permafrost of Iceland.” So states Spitfire Audio Director and co-founder (and adept music-to-picture composer) Christian Henson...
