The PolyComp Black Friday deal takes 60% off Audiority's three-band VCA compressor plugin, bringing it to $18 until Nov 8, 2026.
PolyComp recreates the sound of an analogue multiband compressor from the mastering world.
PolyComp covers several jobs: fixing dynamics on individual channels, gluing a full mix on the bus, and finishing a master.
The maker describes PolyComp as a versatile dynamic processor with three bands of VCA compression. The compressor is analogue modelled.
The signal splits into Low, Mid and High bands through two crossover filters.
Every band is its own compressor, so you can clamp the low end hard while leaving the highs loose.
Each band carries its own standard compressor controls:
A three-way switch on every band sets it to On, Bypass or Mute.
Muting a band is handy for hearing what the other two are doing to the signal.
A Dry/Wet control sits on top for parallel compression. Blend the squashed signal back under the untouched one, and you keep transients from the dry path while the compressed bands add density.
The interface is resizable, which helps on smaller laptop screens.
PolyComp is a VST plugin in VST2 and VST3 formats on both platforms. Mac builds add AU, and AAX runs in Pro Tools 11 or higher (64-bit).
On Windows you need Windows 7 or later (64-bit only), an Intel i5 or higher, 2GB RAM and a 1024×768 screen.
On Intel Macs it needs OSX 10.13 or later (64-bit only), an Intel i5 or higher and 2GB RAM.
Apple Silicon Macs need macOS 11 or later, an Apple M1 or higher and 2GB RAM. All three setups are 64-bit only.
