Don't know about "best" (an all too common red herring when it comes to musical tools) but I agree that the Mixbus DSP is really well done. You can smash that comp and it still sounds good.

Yeah that's why I said 'for me' - so, 'in my experience' I guess I should have said. It's certainly preferable to Reaper's and Studio One's stock stuff (wasn't very impressed with most of S1's plugins to be honest). Logic's compressors fair much better (from what I remember when I used them at Uni - Logic Pro 8 though). I've done exhaustive comparisons with compressors on a wide variety of material and I found - in particular - that the Mixbus comps do the least damage to the low end. Even using other comps with sidechain filters to control what frequencies are being compressed didn't sound as good to me. Yes, they really do know their stuff. Bootsie's ThrillseekerLA came surprisingly close though - useful to know for me when I'm mixing in Reaper.LawrenceF wrote:Don't know about "best" (an all too common red herring when it comes to musical tools) but I agree that the Mixbus DSP is really well done.

Those guys certainly do know audio.
