uad 1176LN vrs BF 76 soft compressors

Hi , so i recorded bass and drums just for the test , my girlfriend Tina helped with te vocal part , very quick , not hi fi .

settings on both plugins where the same , escept for gain , uad LN needs more db .

You'll see the settings on the picture ,i compressed more than usual, just to compare squashing , pumping , color ,dulling etc ( effects of real compressors.. you name it ) , i'll post new samples with gentle compression next time . In most of the instruments i used the same settings , medium to fast atack , fast release , 4:1 ratio and the VU showed 4 to 5 db of gain reduction . If you have the chance , try ( on drums , bass , or vocals ) this settings with the real 1176LN . purple audio version , another fet compressor , or any other hardware compressor with manual ratio , atack and release settings before listening.

each sample starts with the uneffected instrument A , then follows b , c
