Key Features
The PSP DRC is a modern plugin recreation of the classic DBX118 dynamics processor. Based on a classic design but expanded with new capabilities, it delivers both compression and expansion in a single interface, making it ideal for shaping dynamics with greater precision and speed. The dual-engine setup means you can control audio above and below the threshold separately, giving you more nuanced results for a wide range of material. Whether you’re adding punch to drums or smoothing dialogue levels, DRC responds cleanly and transparently.
It also includes powerful features like compander pairing, advanced side chain support, and external routing for advanced mixing and mastering techniques. From detailed mix control to post-production and sound design, DRC adapts easily without adding unnecessary steps to your process. And while it offers deep control, the interface keeps things clear and straightforward, helping you stay focused on the sound rather than the settings. With its combination of precision, speed and usability, DRC is ideal for professionals who need a reliable, all-in-one tool for dynamic shaping across any project.

PSP DRC gives you full control across the dynamic range. You can compress loud peaks or expand quieter elements independently, shaping your audio more precisely. With threshold-based isolation, the plug-in reacts only to the part of the signal you want to affect, meaning cleaner results with fewer compromises. This is ideal for mix engineers working with vocals, drums, or complex layers where transparent processing is key.
While inspired by the DBX 118, PSP DRC avoids being a straight replica. It’s built with a forward-thinking approach, giving you expanded features that go beyond the original hardware. That includes side chaining with external input support and dual compression-expansion capabilities that can be shaped independently. These additions make it far more than a vintage effect, it’s a powerful tool fit for modern studios.
One of DRC’s most useful features is its compander pair function. By setting compression at 2:1 and expansion at 1:2, you can craft detailed dynamic contours, either to clean up a track or add rhythmic character. It’s particularly useful in sound design and post-production where tone and timing need shaping in subtle, dynamic ways.
DRC is versatile enough to handle everything from punchy beats and clear vocals to ambient beds and complex dialogue stems. Whether you’re mastering a mix, processing location sound, or designing synthetic textures, its flexible routing and dynamic options give you more control in fewer steps. It’s a solid choice for anyone who needs a compact tool with wide-reaching impact.
