But maybe it is just me, who knows...  Do you mean the way the settings work? It's definitely a little different than most... I'm going to bed, but quick question: is "AUTO" auto-release, or auto-attack and release? Or is it auto-threshold too? When I switch it off at strong settings, I hear a big change in gain, and distortion/compression artefacts - switch it back on, gone! No, I was joking, just saying I may be the only one liking it so much 
Auto is another world. In the hw manual it is called an automatic atk and rls management, but the circuits actually change more than that. It switches from peak to rms, too. If you look at the manual for the hw you'll see how vague the specs are. Who used the hw knows how it is a too-fast unit, real fun for some uses. The follwing products got about one half of those speed ranges. Reading now...kind of cool, reading a hardware manual to understand my software! I didn't realize the dbx was this program-dependant. This explains why sometimes it seems like the compressor's attack/release has changed because, well, it has. But to be clear: adjusting the attack/release with "AUTO" on does nothing, right? I know on some compressors, it affects the time of the auto-release. ----  |

Here's what I was noodling with last night:
Drums-C165a-Test-01.mp3 First is a dry kit, then c165 on every channel, then a heavy c165 on the drum buss too. ---- |

Yes, atk and rls knobs are completely disabled in auto mode.
Great listening to the drums example now! |

In Mulab the compressor has no external inputs for the sidechain 
Same in EnergyXT In reaper it only shows 2in/2out (left+right/left+right) ---- Mulab-MUX-Diversion-TX16Wx-SKNOTE-Charlatan-Valhalla-GordonSmith-YamahaTHR10-Trackspacer-TheDrop/Glue-Drumaxx-VOS-DC8C [i5 2500K @ 4,3GHz] [8Gb DDR3] [200Gb+ SSD][M-Audio Delta 24/96 PCI] |

uhm.. you do whatever you like 
Am i wrong to ask what the 'external' button is for? I am happy with my purchase regardless. Maybe my choice of similes caused confusion ...  ---- Mulab-MUX-Diversion-TX16Wx-SKNOTE-Charlatan-Valhalla-GordonSmith-YamahaTHR10-Trackspacer-TheDrop/Glue-Drumaxx-VOS-DC8C [i5 2500K @ 4,3GHz] [8Gb DDR3] [200Gb+ SSD][M-Audio Delta 24/96 PCI] |
