plugin by plugin.
This is a real vocal running the exact 13-insert RysUp chain we’d use in a session — same order you’d stack it in your DAW. Power the inserts on one by one and hear the vocal come together, then drop the finished chain on the beat.
- Each insert feeds the next — powering one on wakes everything before it.
- Playback never restarts. Toggle mid-line and A/B it like a session.
- No loudness tricks — every bounce is the same take, same level path.

Why buy four compressor personalities separately?
RysUpComp is not a single-purpose compressor. It combines modern, optical, and fast FET-style responses in one product.
Four separate RysUp products: four licenses and four plugin slots.
R-Comp plus CLA-3A at common street-sale pricing.
Modern premium compressor plus a separate 3A-style leveler.

Competitor prices are public US prices checked May 2026 and may change with sales, bundles, upgrades, taxes, or region.
One chain, two moves
The vocal compression workflow got shorter.
Grab peaks with Comp
Start with the fast tab when the vocal jumps forward, the bus needs glue, or the beat needs ducking-style motion.
Level with Opto-3
Switch tabs when the performance needs to sit still without getting pinned or obviously clamped.
Match and print
Use gain, trim, mix, and the peak GR readout to level-match quickly before committing the chain.
From the build log
What we actually check before shipping.
Practical notes from the Rys Up workflow so this page gives more than a generic plugin description.
01
Four compressor responses
Comp handles modern control, Opto-3 and Opto-2 cover two leveling flavors, and Opto-76 adds the faster punch of a FET-style workflow.
02
One consolidated workflow
All four models share one install and license, so you can change compression character without rebuilding the chain.
03
Best chain spot
Put it after cleanup and corrective EQ, then drive Air, DS, Verb, or Delay from a steadier vocal.
Look closer
Every pixel, deliberate.
Hand-built controls. Physics-correct knobs. A UI that looks and feels as good as it sounds.
Four compressors, one window
Comp, Opto-3, Opto-2, and Opto-76 give you four distinct dynamics workflows inside the same tabbed plugin.
Opto and FET character built in
Switch between two optical leveling models and the faster Opto-76 model, each with controls matched to that compression style.

Built different
Small team. Real humans. Shipping daily.
The big plugin brands take years between updates. We ship improvements every day — because we're small, fast, AI-accelerated, and actually listening to the people using our plugins.
We iterate faster than anyone
Leading AI in our dev workflow means we ship new features, new plugins, and bug fixes on a near-daily cadence. Waves took 20 years to update their EQ. We update every week.
You ask, we build
Tell us what you want in the plugin and we'll build it. Suite subscribers get direct access to the dev team — submit feature requests and see them shipped, usually within the week.
Here to disrupt, not extract
No iLok dongles. No paid "upgrade plans." No sales teams taking a cut. We skip the middlemen and price our plugins at what they're actually worth. Pro-grade DSP at indie prices.
Got feedback? Send it our way — we read every message, and we ship what the community asks for.
Built for pro records
Move between clean modern compression, two optical flavors, and fast FET-style control without buying, licensing, or loading four separate plugins.
Questions, answered
Everything you need to know.
Can I try the plugin before I buy it?
Yes—you can hear the real plugin in action before you buy. Use the Before & After player on this page to switch between the same vocal with the plugin turned off and on. The After version was processed by the actual plugin, not a recreated effect, so you can hear exactly what it changes before you decide.
What is the difference between Comp and Opto-3 mode?
Comp mode is the fast VCA-style compressor for punch, sidechain moves, and mix-bus glue. Opto-3 mode is the smoother leveling compressor for vocals, bass, and sources that need to stay steady without sounding clamped.
Do I get all four modes when I buy RysUpComp?
Yes. One RysUpComp license includes Comp, Opto-3, Opto-2, and Opto-76. You do not need to buy, authorize, or load separate compressor plugins for those four workflows.
Why are four compressor models inside RysUpComp?
Different sources need different detector behavior, timing, and character. Keeping the models together lets you choose the right response from one insert while keeping license, gain staging, mix, and trim controls in one place.
What attack and release settings work best on vocals?
In Comp mode, start with Attack around 10-30 ms and Release around 100-300 ms with a 4:1 ratio, pulling 3-6 dB of gain reduction on peaks. For smoother leveling, switch to Opto-3 and use Peak Reduction with output Gain to match the level.
Can RysUpComp replace my SSL bus compressor?
For mix bus glue, yes — RysUpComp is modeled on the same VCA topology as the classic SSL 4000 G bus compressor. Set ratio to 2:1, attack to 30 ms, release to Auto, and pull 1–2 dB of gain reduction. That's the textbook SSL bus move, and it works the same way here.
Does RysUpComp have a sidechain for ducking?
Yes. Route a key input (kick drum, lead vocal) to the sidechain and RysUpComp will react to that signal instead of the track it's on. Great for pumping pads under a kick, ducking a pad under a vocal, or creating that classic house-music sidechain pump.
What ratios does RysUpComp cover?
2:1, 4:1, 10:1, and limit (infinite). 2:1 for gentle glue, 4:1 for musical leveling, 10:1 for aggressive control, and limit for peak catching. No fractional ratios — we kept it to the four ratios that actually matter on the console.
Will RysUpComp work in my DAW?
Yes. RysUpComp ships as AU, VST3, and AAX for macOS (Universal — Intel + Apple Silicon) and Windows 64-bit. That covers Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Fender Studio Pro, Studio One, Cubase, Reaper, GarageBand, Bitwig Studio, and every other major DAW.
What's the difference between the Suite subscription and buying outright?
Buying outright gets you this one plugin forever. The Rys Up Suite subscription ($9.99/mo on annual, $14.99/mo on monthly) gets you every current plugin plus every future plugin we release — one price that unlocks the entire catalog.
Do I need an iLok or dongle?
No. We use a simple license key system. Install once per machine, activate with your email and key, and you're done. No iLok account, no USB dongle, no annual license-manager fees.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes — and we back it with our 30-day fix-it guarantee. Hit a bug? Want a feature added? Email support and we get on it. If we don't ship the fix or feature within 30 days, you're entitled to a full refund, no questions asked. In practice we usually ship within the week — but the guarantee is yours either way. That's the benefit of a small, fast, customer-driven team: you talk to humans, not a ticket queue.
not even gonna lie i've wasted money on plugins before but yours are way cheaper and lowkey work better
finally some plugins that don't look ancient 😂 these actually sound clean too
everything just works without me tweaking forever. way easier than the other stuff i been using
most plugins be overhyped but these actually hit. super clean and easy to use fr
