Drawmer S73 Intelligent Master Processor

Clarity and definition for your mix.

The authentic analog sound of the Drawmer 1973 multi-band compressor

Shape your mix with clarity, definition, and ten unique styles

Two versions included: Drawmer S73 and Drawmer S73 for Amp Room

For the mastering engineer, a multi-band compressor is a powerful tool. But a multi-band compressor that is not used diligently may create more problems than it solves. This is why we created Drawmer S73 Intelligent Master Processor.

Use it to shape your mix with clarity and definition that no regular compressor could ever provide.

"It's a very nice better-maker plugin. Great to slap on the master to get your writing session sounding interesting, but also great for individual busses that needs some life and also in the mastering stage."

Axel Hedfors a.k.a. Axwell DJ, remixer, record producer and one third of Swedish House Mafia

Intelligent Design

A semi-automatic mastering device with a three-band compressor, mid/side capabilities, and transparent filters inside, the S73 makes the choices a mastering engineer would, so it always sounds great.

Minimum Tweaking

Simply use the Style parameter to switch between ready made mastering processing techniques, quickly finding the sound that suits your mix.

Set and Forget

The S73 makes your mixes brighter, louder, wider – whatever you want it to be – with ease. Just set it and forget it, safe in the knowledge you've supercharged your mix.

"I've done multiple mixes with the S73 now and still can't believe the ease of use for getting the punch, clarity and width."

Ron Harris Producer (Christina Aguilera)

Clarity and defintion

Under the hood, the S73 is based on technology created by Drawmer for the 1973 Three Band FET Stereo Compressor. This is an award winning multi-band analog compressor design famous for its precision and flexibility. But as with all multi-band compressors it takes care and experience to find the sweetest of sweet spots.

With the S73 we've found them for you, and the sound design behind each Style represents an expert mastering engineer's skill and taste. You'll have no trouble getting the best out of Drawmer with this special little unit.

 

Close to the original

Softube has carefully modeled all the characteristics of the original analog hardware at component level, so what you hear in the S73 is truly the real thing in action.

"I think they've nailed it," says Kieron Clough, Products Manager at Drawmer. "Ivor [Drawmer] thinks they've nailed it as well. It's fantastic!"

The S73 is the way to get top-of-the-line analog hardware on your mastering bus without fear of choice paralysis or losing yourself in the details. It's called the Intelligent Master Processor because it makes the tough decisions for you, leaving you free to listen to the effect.
