Empirical Labs has released version 2.0 of its compressor plug-in Arousor, initially for Mac with Windows support coming within a month or two.
New Features:
- AAX-DSP for the Mac. Windows version to follow shortly, pending copy protection repair.

- New Presets from Famous Engineers.
- Refined markings for matching Distressor Detector settings. New Mark on Det HP Freq, Det BP Gain.
