Thx Osten, yeah i hear what u mean.

Basically i was asking because i want to compress some things like kicks, snares,ect, individually with the Alan Smart C1, and i wanted to use the C1 also on the 2 buss for the glue,ect.

Depending on the situation,ect, i'll track some stuff with the Distressors for some compression and colour, but when mixing if i wanted to add more ssl type smack and sound, id use the C1 individually to further compress those sounds.

So i guess i would have to buy two Alan Smart C1's if i wanted to mix through it, and at the same time also use it to compress things individually?
