Yeah almost didn't need compression on the vocals. You sing like me wfo all the time. Kinda like a Marshall lol!
The MC77 has a different trip, when the attack time was fastest the MC77 clamped the peak transients quicker and harder then both the 2-1176 and the plug. The 2-1176 and the plug seemed to work very similar but the MC77 was very different. You hit the input half as much on the 77 to get the same reduction as the other 2 pieces.

100 watt stack.
