That really is a lot of vintage and esoteric gear, even by Gearslutz standards. I notice that at least half of the equipment on the list is tube-based. Do you tend to find a preference for tube-gear? I also notice that in spite of the extensive list of compressors, as far as I'm aware, not a single one of them is VCA-based. That's quite unusual! Anyway, how are you enjoying the Dynax? That is a quite a new compressor, and I don't think there has been much feedback on it here on Gearslutz yet.

Best Wishes,
Ben.
