BZ-Distress
A compressor with eight ratios, two distortion modes and a detector you can shape.
What is modelled.
No schematic of the original has ever been published. BZ-Distress is built from its manual's block diagram and published specifications, and says so.
The audio path and the detector are two linked circuits, and every button on the panel selects a real change in them.

The installer is the whole plugin. It runs as a 7-day trial until you sign in with a licence, and needs no account to try.
