With almost a quarter million downloads, RoughRider3 from Audio Damage Inc. is a highly popular plugin effect on the iPhone. It is a free compressor that expands on the features of the original RoughRider and RoughRider2.

One of the new features in RoughRider3 is the External Sidechain Input, which is currently only supported in the AUM host. This allows for more flexibility and control in your audio processing. Additionally, there is a Sidechain HPF control that can be used to remove low-end frequencies from the compression algorithm, both in normal operation and with external sidechain input.

RoughRider3 also introduces Input and Output level controls, making it easier to fine-tune the level of your audio. Another notable feature is the FULL BANDWIDTH control, which removes the warming features and high-end attenuation from the original RoughRider, resulting in a cleaner sound.

This plugin is available as both an AUv3 and a standalone with Inter-App Audio, giving you multiple options for integrating it into your music production workflow. Experience the powerful compression capabilities of RoughRider3 and take your audio to the next level.
