Orra Press is a compressor plug-in that puts a whole dynamics chain in one window: up to six compressor, clipper and limiter stages in any order. It’s for mixing and mastering engineers who are tired of stacking three or four separate compressors on every track.

Orra Audio Orra Press 1.2.0 Overview

Orra Press is made by Orra Audio, a small developer founded by Aaron Jaques and David Schocke. It loads as an AU, VST3 or AAX plug-in in your DAW. Instead of one compression style, it gives you six slots, and each slot can hold any of seven engines: Classic (VCA), Optical, FET, Multiband, Spectral, Clipper and Limiter. You can stack the same engine more than once, reorder slots with arrow buttons, and give each slot its own sidechain source. A free companion plug-in, Orra Link 2, lets any track in your session key any slot, even in DAWs with limited sidechain routing.

Key Features

Seven engines, six slots: You can load Classic, Optical, FET, Multiband, Spectral, Clipper or Limiter in any order, including duplicates. For example, two gentle Classic stages can give control without obvious squashing. Clipper engine (new in 1.2.0): It shaves peaks with Hard, Round or Warm curves and anti-aliased oversampling. It’s useful before the Limiter on a master or for drum transients. Independent sidechain per slot: Each slot can key from the host sidechain or from any track running Orra Link 2, picked by track name. You could duck bass with the kick in one slot and react to a vocal in another. Mastering-grade Limiter: It has true-peak detection, LUFS metering, three styles and up to 16× oversampling for final loudness. A/B/C/D snapshots: You can store four complete plug-in states and switch instantly to compare chains by ear. Workflow additions in 1.2.0: Per-slot solo, a sidechain high-pass on Classic, Optical and FET, a much faster Multiband engine, and 14 multi-module
