The HOFA IQ-Series Comp is the world’s only compressor that can link the gain reduction to the integrated tone control.
This feature allows you to boost the bass frequencies of a vocal in loud sections, for instance or lets you create completely new tones that depend on the gain reduction, e.g. when compressing drums.
We equipped the IQ-Series Comp with the intelligence to achieve perfect results for all possible audio signals.
Whether you’re processing vocals, drums or other instruments, bus channels or the master: the HOFA IQ-Series Comp constantly adjusts relevant settings automatically according to the material. Based on your initial settings, you’ll get the best sounding compression ever.
This detailed video tutorial shows the features of the IQ-Series Comp V2 and gives some valuable tips and tricks.
HOFA IQ-Series Comp
Features V2.5.8:
“The IQ-Series Comp has been my go-to compressor plugin for years, be it for individual signals, groups or the master bus – this guy simply does a fantastic job!
And when it comes to functionality and performance, the guys from HOFA would have deserved their GRAMMY a long time ago.
Thanks for your great work!”

One of the things I love most about the IQ-Series Comp is that the need for Post-EQ has already been factored into the various compression modes. As a result, it works as a kind of 2-in-1 plugin, allowing me to get the sonic results I want in half the time. Great idea!

Thanks to the adaptability of attack, release and ratio, the signal´s dynamics can be reduced without having any pumping effects or affecting the sound at all.
…good results, easy to use, versatile and flexible.
Soundcheck
Though extremely easy to use, the IQ-Series Comp is able to handle the most complex audio material, even when other plugins already had to throw in the towel.
Professional Audio Editors Choice 2012
Using the IQ-Series Comp is really easy. It is an unobtrusively working compressor that – with its possibility of simulaneously tweaking the sound – has the making of a secret weapon.
.. should be standard in many studios.
value for money: „very good – outstanding“ | overall mark: „top of the range – very good“
Professional Audio
With the IQ-Series Comp HOFA achieved a great success again.
At an attractive price, you get a very powerful compressor whose strengths come to play at a variety of applications.
Even drastic processing still sounds “musical”. Its remarkable flexibility makes this intuitive mixing and mastering tool an interesting alternative to multiband compressors.
