So right now I have 5 comps outside of UAD GSSL Buss comp.
LA-2A I use for some vocals, some acoustics
1176 I use for pretty much everything. On almost all the drums, for bass, for vocals.
LA-3A (Actually from waves) it's my favorite comp for acoustics, some vocals.
UAD SSL comp included in the channel strip which i use on a lot as well anything that doesn't need a specific feel of a 3a or 76 the SSL comp just works especially if i'm already using the EQ it glues/Feels better.
And Waves Rcomp. I really (randomly) love this Comp It's gritty vintage dark feel works on a lot of sources for me. I pretty much have it glued to my drum room. It gives this grit to the cymbal pump without having to comp the cymbals.
Anyways I feel like I don't need any other comps for anything. HOWEVER
Yesterday I tried softubes CL1B and I really liked it. I was using it on an acoustic session which I don't record often but i feel like it was really up to par with UAD quality which i'm a proponent of. I feel like it's quality is top notch. and I love the sound it helps produce but I don't really have a need for it for anything apart for some acoustic sources and certain vocals. I don't really ever get G.A.S but on this I am. So poses the question.
Would I be dumb to buy it?
Do any of you use it or the actual hardware for any metal source material?
Thanks again.
