i know a team of 4 people who do TV post, and they all use 1176LN for dialog (in nuendo), and they swear by it as the best dialog compressor.
i find it inconvenient, because (AFAIK) you can't set it to just compress louder parts, leaving the softer untouched - it somehow fiddles with everything due to the unconventional knob set (e.g. no gain makeup). i like to be able to bypass compressor on a soft part of dialog and see no change in volume....
besides 1176LN, they don't use any other UAD stuff, don't know why. perhaps waves eq is easier to automate?
