Emulation of the Slate Pro Audio Dragon · inspired by the Slate Pro Audio Dragon

The most versatile compressor ever built. Thousands of sounds.

About the Slate Pro Audio Dragon

The Slate Pro Audio Dragon starts with a classic 1176-style FET circuit enhanced with a mastering-grade signal path, Jensen input transformer, and Class A output transformer. But then it goes much further — three character filters (Boom, Bite, Sheen), Vintage mode, three analog tape saturation modes, and a parallel compression Mix knob.

The PH-Dragon CLAP emulation models all of the Dragon's character settings, saturation combinations, Squash mode, HPF sidechain, and variable ratios — giving you literally thousands of distinct sonic combinations in one plugin.
