This May, U-he released the 1.1 version of their esteemed ‘Dynamics Processor’ plug-in Presswerk. There’s been a fair bit of hype surrounding this device since its release last December. Already a favourite amongst some of the staff we were intrigued to see what the update has to offer and at last give the unit a run for its money. So without further ado, here's the low down on whats new in version 1.1 and why Presswerk might just become your new favourite digital compressor.

MeterPlugs Perception is a new plugin created by Ian Shepherd and MeterPlugs. The main idea behind the plugin is to help engineers, specifically those who master music, find the dynamically loud sweet spot of any composition, which in turn helps combat the loudness war (read our blog post on the loudness war here).
