I'm super impressed!

What a great plugin, almost identical to the hardware version, plus I can add it to every channel I want- I'm so impressed by the instant quality it gives to my drums. Thank you!

Best mix and subgroup compressor!

Best universal modern compressor for an track or subgroup, modern vibe, highs and stereo wide no cut, super tight dynamic BD and Bass ( vs all native soft plugins) super replica HW

Great aggressive compressor

When I want things upfront or add some bite I use this, great addition to other UAD compressors. And it’s very versatile, controllable and adds strong character to everything.

Damn great!

Did a lot of research and checked a bunch of shootouts before my purchase... This is a beautiful emulation of the hardware. Gives you the grit when you need it, keeps is tight when you don’t.

Easy to use!

For some reason, this thing is just so easy to use. I can already know what I want to do with it, and then just dial in the settings right away. Love how easy it is to add distortion tube-live distortion, or more of a tape-like distortion. Also, it's great on vocals for helping with sibilance. And works will with drums and especially bass so that you won't make the low end sound too dull.

Great colour

Perfect for the drum buss, and just passing the mix buss through it colours it nicely
