Awesome

I love this plug-in. I mean the midnight, inserted it into the drums that came alive as well as the Bass. I wish I had bought this a long time ago. Made all a difference in the world.

Decent Bus Compressor

The SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor is a decent but effective compressor for every kind of busses or master chain. Intuitive graphic interface and first class sound.

Jensen

I Only Purchased It For Jensen Transformer.

And
For Saving DSP,
You Can First Insert The SSL Preamp Version, Use The Preamp As Per Your Taste & Next Load The Legacy To Eq & Compress.
BTW No Doubt It’s A Real Deal.

The best

By far it is the SSL Channel Strip that sounds the best. I've never mixed on a real console so I can't say if it looks like the original or not. But I can say with complete certainty that it is the best SSL plugin. It sounds deep, clear and crisp. It also has a special tone that I love!

I'm looking forward to having it in UADx, since for now I only use it on lead vocals because I can't open more than two. If they do this it will be on each channel of my mixes to contribute its own.
