Smart Research - High Performance Mix Buss Compressors

The fact that the Smart Research C1, and C2 compressors have a lot in common with SSL's legendary analog compression circuit is no accident. Alan Smart was an engineer with SSL for many years, having installed and serviced countless SSL consoles in studios worldwide. His experience with SSL consoles led to the development of the C1 and C2 compressors, which have become some of the most popular mix buss compressors on the market.

Smart Research C2

The Smart Research C2 has become the go to piece for engineers looking for that major-label quality mix buss compressor. This fast VCA compressor adds punch to whatever is run through it. In addition to the legendary sound that you would expect, the C2 also has some great features such as the ability to run stereo or dual mono. It also has "CRUSH" mode for those looking for more exaggerated compression. Running the mix through the C2 gives the user the sense that their project is ready for the radio.

Smart Research C1

The C1 is the original Smart compressor. It is basically a black faced version of the C2 minus the sidechain inputs and the CRUSH mode. The C1 still delivers the ability to run stereo or dual mono, and has that legendary sound that is a must have for the mix buss.
