Haha yes indeed! All there stuff is. The console they make looks cool too There's a clip of Sylvia Massy using it in place of a Fairchild 670. Kind of cool. |

I saw their console at AES. Pretty cool unit, but felt very raw. Price is right though.

Always wanted to try their saturation hardware

I didn’t realize DeWalt had gotten into audio.

This whole branding seems aimed at Tim "The Toolman" Taylor!

Yeah I know the video but c'mon... It's called endorsement. Sure. But that's still a big endorsement. Either way it's a cool compressor |

What are your thoughts on it ? When you used it .

Not for everything but then again what comporessor is for everything? I remember not being very keen on the sound of the saturation/ drive thing but YMMV. But comparing it to a fairchild is a bit.... unfair I guess |

Definitely, I mean....its a FET compressor vs a Vari MU compressor. Not really the same thing at all.

Ever get to play with an SR-71 Blackbird comp? I got to fool with one at AES a few years back - utterly amazing compressor. Out of production now, they cost more to build than they sold for. |

No, unfortunately I never had the chance to try it although I'd love too. It's a beast! |

Sylvia is great, and no offense to her, but finding one setting on a comp that sounds nearly identical on the master buss of one particular mix is very different from a unit sounding like a Fairchild in many different applications. Two different beasts. She also stopped the playback before it was possible to see the gain reduction. With lower amounts of gain reduction I’ve come close to matching different units before. At higher gain reduction, each unit imparts more of its original imprint. That said, if a company gave me a nice comp like the monster 2, I’d gladly share love for it too 😁
