Description

Level-Or by Standard Audio x Safari Pedals

Level-Or is a fierce character compressor/limiter based on the cult-classic 500 series hardware unit by Standard Audio. Rebuilt with Safari Pedals’ lush interface and extra tone shaping tools, it’s a beast of a plugin—perfect for smashing drums, vocals, or any sound that needs a punch in the face (in a good way).

Legendary Hardware. Now in the Box.

This isn’t your everyday transparent compressor. Level-Or Mk2 brings attitude to your tracks with aggressive gain reduction, crunchy saturation, and a unique sonic signature that made the original a secret weapon for top engineers.

Two Modes. Infinite Energy.

Switch between the beloved Mk1 and Mk2 flavors, each with their own distinct punch and grit. Whether you're after gritty lo-fi or explosive high-energy dynamics, Level-Or Mk2 delivers.

Mk1 – Original vintage-flavored crunch, raw and nasty.

Mk2 – Extended range, improved fidelity, more surgical control.

Extra Safari Sauce 🐆

  • Pre/Post Tone Shaper – Sculpt your transients or shape the body with the versatile tone control.
  • Input & Output Control – Push it hard or dial it back. You’re in control of the chaos.
  • Crunch, Slow, Fast Modes – Choose your flavor of dynamic punishment.
  • VU Metering – Visual feedback to match the madness.
  • Blend & Oversampling – Modern touches for hybrid workflows.

Why Choose Level-Or?

If you’re chasing *THAT* drum sound, trying to wake up a sleepy vocal, or want a tone destroyer on your bus—this is your plugin. Built in collaboration with the real-deal hardware company, this is more than a clone. It’s a love letter to distortion, compression, and character.
