What a thing!
I was looking for a new all-round compressor for vocals -hoping to find something as natural and versatile as the LA3A, which i has been my go-to vocal comp for many years. After much research on the UA forums, i decided on the Elysia Alpha, which i had never used before.
WOW did i get more than i hoped for! This thing is amazingly versatile and sounds unbelievably good. From light compression to flat limiting, it somehow always sounds natural and dynamic. Great controls and easy to use. I am very impressed.
LA3A for sale anyone?J. Svard
Elysia So Nice Compressor
One word ..Fantastic..

THE HOLY GRAIL OF COMPRESSORS
If you don't have and Elysia, you're missing the ultimate compression tool in your arsenal. Unlike any other compressor plug-in, it is more flexible, more musical, more everything than perhaps any other UAD plug-in. If you only bought one plug-in, it should be this one! If I could rate it 10 starts out of 5, that wouldn't be enough stars!

Ah, what a beautiful workhorse!
Can a workhorse be beautiful? Yes, and this is the case of elysia• alpha! When in need of transparent, precise compression for literally anything (drums, bass, backing vocals, synths, guitars) - go for alpha. It lets you keep your mixes really, really clean where needed. Doesn't provide you with "tons of colour", but it's not mean this way. Pair it with Distressor, 1176 or anything else of your choice for chosen tracks/groups and you're more than fine.
Highly, highly recommended, tested for a short time so far, but heavily with synths, guitars, vocals (singing and a TV voice-over), bass and drums (gave very good results with electronic pop/IDM genres).
Saying goodbye to Waves C1 right now :) <3R. Gun
interesting some times
Subtle, for my opinion not that easy to adjust perfectly.
Can distort, pay attention.

Amazing MS compression and Eqs!
Great compressor for stereo bus, MS comp and EQ!A great tool to have!
A. Hume
Unbelievable Master Compressor
You can easily get SSL-style punch or extremely transparent compression. The soft clip function sounds like crap on masters, but that's to be expected with most basic clippers. Perfectly useable function for individual tracks. The 'warm' button also sounds great, I really like the linked M/S over unlinked for mastering as well. This isn't just for mastering, but an extremely detailed mixing or tracking comp.

elysia• alpha compressor
Transparent sound, production width, and some mid-frequency and low-frequency upgrades, some songs are still very suitable.
