by Zenproaudio. I love it. really love it.
...and it rocks! Probably my favorite vocal tracking compressor, and also a real threat on the parallel drum bus. The only thing I don't like it on is "slap" bass, and maybe 2-buss. The mod basically spiffed up the sound (flatter response, less midrange hollowness) and also made the output gain noticeably cleaner, or at least better-sounding at higher levels.
I swear this particular unit (with this mod) sounds more aggressive than my 160xt; so I just use it appropriately...Sounds more like an 1176 and/or an older 160. Love it on loud lead vocals, snare and I am still experimenting. Distressor-like is also a fair comparison, I guess.
I love this EQ for tracking vocals and for just about anything else. Pretty colored, but in a "smooth" way. Think Neve with air, rather than pushed Behringer ;)
longer review coming soon- see my blogs at www.fuzzywallz.com
It is everything you need and nothing you don't. Surgical AND musical. Sturdy build. Win!
I really like all the "preset" verbs and FX...No stupid, confusing screen either! Back in the day, nothing could touch this on smoothness (for me). Only works up to 48khz, which is a bummer, but I run it analog anyways. Try "Classic Hall", "Vocal Studio" and "Drum Box".
