Looking for a bit of oddball stuff this week - after one of these comp/limiters or similar VCA style stereo box.

I only just bought one on this forum a little while ago.

It's very interesting how it uses PWM of the input signal at a real high frequency to control the gain.

Basically turning it on and off at something like 500Khz.

I have only used it on vox and drum machines, which sounded great.

Good luck in your quest!

It's a pretty interesting bit of kit - distinct but good.

In need of a different flavoured vca buss comp, could go Smart or similar but not after the 'ssl' thing per se. Also looking at the overstayer stereo comp but haven't used it so it's an unknown commodity.
