We love these things. Not the best, but way better than any plug in in the box. We used it a lot on our remixes post lust for blood. and man we got great results. I love compressing room verbs with it on vox. amazing. I like using it to make things a little louder in the mix. and it can add punch and cool over drive harmonics that adds a nice color to a stale digital sound. so i like it for that too. Very expensive though… but i think they are workhorse compressors. we have two of them.
