PSP Flare is a tool designed for smooth and musical compression across a variety of tracks and groups. The base algorithm and inspiration for the compressor were provided by Paolo Pasquariello, a talented and gifted Italian post-production sound engineer. While it was specifically designed for film and TV/video post-production, its unique behaviour can deliver excellent results in almost any application.
