i like the fat, natural sound of the original, but it always sounds different in the mix.

I love the "Plug-in" culture. Companies are taking in musicians money for selling small bits of software. The musician believes they own a Neve, Moog or Tube Tech (but they dont really).

I concur, but probably in the mix it sounds tighter.I may have said something stupid there, but I'm just a newb.

@ Dattana, Yeah you are right this compressing sounds redicalous. Never the less this compressor is amazing! This guy just ain't got no ears!

Great video and product. Bottom line: with compression have some "discression" and open your friggen ears, or you end up sounding like overcompressed 80's pop ass. I've heard great mixes ruined with double triple comp, squashing all the dynamics, impossible to fix that master. Don't comp it to sound like the radio (they compress everything as a rule to level out the program) so let them do that. Just make it sound good, natural, or harsh, unatural, whatever. no rules! just ears!

Well, the flip side to this coin is, if your drums fall apart when you introduce the rest of the tracks in the mix, then you're doing something wrong. There's a character sound to this compressor that isn't easy to accomplish with just any other compressor, hardware or software in my opinion. You can't get a DBX 160 to sound like this!
