Can compressor release time limit be extended?

I am using the compressor, limiter and expander plugins to automatically raise and lower the sound-volume on some sources, but the release-times on each plugin can not go higher than 1 second.

Is there some way to extend that to longer times?

Ideally up to 5 or 10 seconds.

I have looked into possibly scripting a plugin myself, but I have no experience with manipulating sound via LUA, and I don't have a C++ environment.

I can create VST2 plugins, but unfortunately the compiler I'm using creates some that, for some odd reason, won't load/open in OBS, although they work in DAWs and other VST2-hosts.

Looking for suggestions, if any exist :)
Thanks.

why you didnt use external audio tools like a DAW to mix your audio ? when you can create a own Compressor VST !

please post an obs log !


have you look into the OBS Source into the compressor source ?

#1: I wanted to keep it simple and avoid introducing possible audio-latency by routing via DAW. But it might be worth an experiment. Thanks.

#2: I have not looked at the OBS-source, since I don't have a C++ compiler and thus can't do anything with it.
