Safesound P1 is a mono comp with a (bypassable) pre in front and a limiter at the end of the circuit. It's auto-release, great for vocals and bass. This thing is utterly transparent - making a RNC sound like a piece from Radio Shack in comparison. You can do 10db of compression on vocals and not even hear it working. The pre is great for smoothing out bright mics. You still get detail, but a little less 'essy-ness' than a regular pre.
