Wauw!
An instant must buy! Eventhough I have more than enough compressors from UA, I just couldn't turn this one down. Put it on whatever instrument and listen to the character and glue within the source. Just amazing on strings, guitars, bass, vocals, drums you name it! A MIX KNOB PLEASE... But its a fiver for me.

This thing is rocking my world right now...
Can honestly say I have never heard a plug in sound as close to a driven vintage limiter as this does. I own two original RCA BA6As and have been dreaming about a plug in that does something similar to what they do. Wish granted. Crank the input gain, adjust the sidechain, and be amazed. If you love syrupy gluey pumping crunch as much as I do, this one's for you. Not for everyone - but if you love compression/limiting/THD as an effect/colour, this is your beast...hit 'demo' at your credit card's peril LOL

What I've been missing!
The last frontier of desirable compressors has been attained by UA! It is as good as you'd think it would be! Stunning!

Good, but
I don't feel right giving this wonderful plug in 5 stars.
It works well, I just don't love it. I won't compare it to the 'source' as it's been waaaay too long since I have used one.

Big Sound
Really gives something, loud or soft, presets are perfectly named.

Temperamental (but well worth the effort)
Used judiciously (and after a through reading up on the hardware version - and the UA manual), this thing is amazing! Having never used one of these in the real world, I just dropped it in like any compressor to very mixed results (lots of pumping and choking when pushed hard). But that’s not what this beast was made for. Across a bit buss, use Comp1 with the Side Chain to either 150 or 300Hz, Attack at 2 and the release between 2 and 6. And set that input gain to LOW (turns out it also refers to the input impedance), then turn UP that input dial (it goes to 11). You’ll probably only realize about 4 to 6 dbs of reduction - but it’s the best 6 dbs of glue I’ve heard out of a computer emulation. Treated with care, this “box” is stunning!

Color and character!
Great comp on busses and individual tracks. Works amazing with slow attack and fast or medium release in conjuction with side-chain. Thd mode its a nice addition too.
