Musicians: are you frustrated with promoters and other industry people leaving your emails unanswered? Do you wish to promote your projects but don’t know how to approach the right people?

Promoters are often overwhelmed by hundreds of emails a day so getting that first moment of contact just right can be daunting. Emails are sometimes drafted poorly; social media presence is either lacking or spammy; and there is no real aim other than pushing for immediate results—except that isn’t how the industry works: We are not in the sales business. We are in the people business.

22/12/2023 | x64 x86 VST VST3 AU AAX WiN MAC | 55 MB
Some compressors are designed to be subtle. This one is not! We set out to make the ideal compression plugin for smashing and squashing drums, beats or entire mix busses. Beat Slammer will give you that pumping and 'bouncy' compression sound that slaps you in the face.

The plugin is based on IHNY-2 by Baby Audio and functions as a parallel compressor. This means you can compress even harder than you normally would and just blend in the compressed signal to taste, while retaining the dynamics of your dry signal.

Being the result of students’ efforts, no responsibility is taken for their stability. However, some of them are quite impressive, for example, check out the MiniMOOD plugin: a virtual-analogue emulation of a famous synthesiser.
