Pensadia SOR8 is described as a plugin emulation of the Empirical Labs classic compressor, The Distressor. It’s availlable as a Free Version (Settings & Presets reset to default on session load) and a Donation Version ($1+ donation required for Full Version with Black Knobs, $10 donation required for Full Version Black & White Knobs. Includes Opto Mode).
From my personal tests this over the weekend it may not sound like a “real” Distressor, but this plugin rules. It really makes drums knock hard and has a great gritty sound to it. Well worth a $1 donation!!
