Yeah, us win xp dinosaurs. Left adrift, and do we really need it?
 
I f you can install on a win 7 or later, copy the dll to win xp and it runs the thing in the demo mode at least for 20 minutes.
 
Respect for the NI guys offering a good freware. Good unit, but doesn nothing available elsewhere better for free or at moderate cost.
 
Passing reference was somewhere here for Klaghelm's comp. Killer comp with advanced settings. Recent critical upgrades/fixes.
 
NI's comp is moderate cool, and can't argue the price, but check out the Kalg unit. Serious contender IMHO. Got a free limited version in there somewhere that is at least as quality, functional as the NI freebie.

What this did do is make me take another look at Klanghelm's DC1A 2 since it has just been updated.  I like using a compressor on my VB3 Hammond B3 VST. Until now I was using Audio Damage Rough Rider.  I was hoping the Turbo Charger would give me the grit I like on the organ but as I stated previously, a bit too harsh for my taste. Then I downloaded the DC1A update and really liked the subtle saturation it adds to the signal.  In any case, I'm sure the TurboCharger will come in handy on a particular track one day!

You would probably love the Thrillseeker VBL by Variety of sound. http://varietyofsound.wordpress.com/2013/07/01/released-thrillseekervbl-vintage-broadcast-limiter/
It's 32bit, but works fine in Sonar and is free.
 
I also have the DC8C2 and it's pretty good too.

Who wanna see my gift .....i paid for ?

Wow...that's a sad looking drive Zo...for a new product.

I guess if it is an SSD then that's a bonus...but it should have been a NEW SSD,
not a cheap looks like used SSD with a sticker on it.

Maybe some employee took the new one and gave you his old one?

Hard to slam a freebie.  I suppose I will find a use for it. 

Freebies are sometimes worth less than what you paid for them. 
 

indeed.

Not even an ssd !!! mechanical drive that each time i plug it , i pray to not hear those"click /clikc/clclick" ...ect .
 
Ihave old drive (never used , the one that came with my laptops ect ...)gonna use those in a case and basta.....the worst thing is that i'm not the only o ne with this joke !!

Since this thread has been high-jacked and the subject changed, I'm going throw it back to NI's Gifts.
 
I have an number of NI products over the years and they do make good stuff, regardless of the company being liked or disliked.
 
I downloaded this compressor, and I'll bet it will be quite good for some things.
One can always try it & then uninstall it later, if they don't care for it. 
 
But I'm thinking odds are it will end up staying installed.
 
Thanks NI!

I haven't tried it on anything important like drums or vocal yet, but I did stick it on a spacey pad to see what the dirt button would do, and I have to say I love what it did to it! I have no idea why it works....it just does 

I tried it on a bass track and it sounded pretty good.

Here's a video on it.
