I like tracking with hardware comps. It sounds good to me.
Should I just find a FMR RNLA?
I really like my CAD CGM-2. I actually thought about just getting another one.
Do $200 DBX comps sound better than $150 comps

I have a couple of them in my live rack...and they sound great but I've never used them for recording. That...and I don't know what the hell I'm doing with them...I just mess with buttons and knobs until it sounds the way I want.

How about a $100 (or best offer) DBX 166A stereo compressor?
