I happen to own a shep 33609- not a Neve- which has a slightly different character. I'm not one to use it on drums as many will probably mention here. I prefer it on bigger stereo buss stems like multiple BVs or strings or even synths- with a bit of post EQ on top. YMMV |

Brilliant on everything except the 2-bus... Well, it's pretty good there too.

2-bus is awesome! 1.5:1, fastest release, just kissing it. I usually need a little eq after it to get some high end back. I usually use a Hammer or Clariphonic. Great on vocals. I need to mess around with the limiter section as I don't know so much about it and people don't talk about it much. The thing I've found with the vintage units is that the attack and release times can be kind of different from unit to unit. Especially the release. Some are pretty fast while others are a little longer and therefore smoother. |

sometimes everything! maybe not on the 2buss for more modern stuff but then again everytime i get to use one it surprises me so im certain one day it will sound great to me on modern material... it has a definite signature but when it works it makes me wet myself  |

My first experience with a 33609 was working in Mutt Lang'e studio. It was amazing on the 2 buss. I had to get one after that. I can't mix without one now. |

I must be doing stuff wrong (or it's not the 2busscomp). Using a 33609J on an album. no limiter, a2 release and getting 2-4dB of GR and getting quite an inflated low end + my mixes lack a serious amount of 'openness'.. will do new bounces tomorrow without the Neve and see if that's the reason..

Oh, I also like to bus all of my kicks and snares together to one channel each. As in, send snare top, bottom and sample, etc to a channel and compress the blend. Same with kick. I love this though rarely do it because the thing pretty much lives on my stereo bus.
