COMPRESSION

[mike001]

I am looking for a good all around compressor.

I have a digi001 using a digimax lt. Anybody have any suggestions??

What's your per channel price range?

[mike001]

I am prepared to spend 500-800 bucks for the whole unit.

Looking for some user testimonials.

Hey Mike,

Just curious, are you finding out that you need comp/limiters with the LT. I'm trying to decide between digimax98 and the LT (I'll be tracking drums here at home) wondering if that has been a problem for you not having the limiters on the LT.

The FMR Real Nice Compressor is great (its not dual mono) but is stereo compression for about $175.00 and free shipping at Humbucker.

The PresonusACP88 8 channel comp lists for about $1199.00. they also have the CL44 4 channel lists at $699.00 do you want 2 channel or 8 to insert into your LT?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Not at all. The unit is amazing! im just looking to upgrade my studio and I have been reading how compression hardware can improve my sound. I am look into the ACP88 and find that I can get it for around $899 and the 4 channel is about $499 so for the extra money I might as well go all the way and get the 8!
