Just wondering if anyone has wrapped their ears around Groove Tubes' Glory Comp as of yet. Looks like another possible home run for Aspen. Fletcher...anyone? Thanks.

Well just to let everyone know, last night again when connecting the 428 to rnc through inserts, it distorted again on vocals when I sang loud. I give up. I am using the analog compressor in the Korg 32xd now and that works just fine. BLAHHHHHHH! :evil:

I tried to do a vocal track last night using the sidechain of my isa 428 into the rnc. It sounded like it was distorting quite a bit. I then tried the same thing using the side chain into a marshall compressor I have used on vocals a lot in the past, it was totally distorted.

Hello Sebatron ,

I joined here after looking at the ebay auction for the veqc2000:

Looks like a great steal!

Just got an 1176 off ebay. The internal fuse was not in there nor the fuse holder. Managed to fit a newer internal fuse holder inside the casing but was wondering what fuse should I put in?

I fitted a 1 amp one and the unit works fine but is this the right rating to protect it?

Any comments much appreciated.

I hear a lot of people say it's not the best idea to strap a compressor across the mix bus for the drums. but if you were going to do such a thing, what compressor would you use?

There's bound to be electronically educated people here on this forum?
I have a specific question concerning the urei 1178 (early 80ies version)..

I recently added a SonicStudio HD system to our mastering room and I am seeking some suggestions for a brickwall limiter. I've currently got an API 2500 compressor which offers some nice old school character but I really need a decent sounding limiter. Unfortunately the local shops are no help since the salesmen typically don't use the gear they're selling.

Crowd,

Sorry if this post overlaps others which are similar (some even recently by me), but I need some feedback from the mastering brains on the purchase of a hardware limiter (or compressor/limiter) for my studio.

For me, it's now down to a choice between a plugin /dsp suite (probably UAD-1 Studio) or one of the following hardware pieces:

Hi there,
So I'm going to be filling up some compressor needs with a few less expensive units. I've got a Chandler LTD2 and a Summit TLA100-but I need a few more for mix down times.
The targets:
ART Pro Vla (dirty)
FMR RNC (clean)
CBS Audimax III
Symetrix 501
dbx 160x
