Sounds nice, just what I wanted to hear. Thanks!

Yeah, but you still are hitting the converters first, so once agian, it wouldnt matter if it was on or off. You have to have a hardware compressor in line before it hits the DAW.

Max Cooper you are bending the rules a little!! You crafty bastard!

My personal favs:
URS 1970
Waves SSL Bundle
Waves Rcomp
PSP vintage warmer
Digital Fish Phones Blockfish

[Jake 2.0]

UAD 1176, Bass, Drums, Backup Vocals

Rcomp and Rvox On for that modern compressed vocal sound.

I love my Waves. although i have to say the WUP is a big rip.
