Re: Can anyone suggest a decent compressor
by Rodney Morris on Mar 1, 2009 at 7:32:08 pm

Ty, as I said earlier I've not used the 3630 in a studio, so I can't really comment on it's performance there, but in a live situation it's not been terrible, certainly not worse than the other budget compressors I'm accustomed to using (dbx, presonus). I know there are better sounding units for a lot more money (to which the studio guys all agree), but for only $100 I expected this unit to sound like crap and I don't think it does. I normally set it to compress at a ratio of 3:1, fastest response and release times possible, attenuating 5-8 dBs. With those settings it doesn't sound that bad to me.

That being said, the RNC may very well be a better unit - I've not used it.
