If I remember correctly the 610 is a bit of hybrid as it's almost like a leveling preamp. The compression circuit is based on the vintage Teletronik LA2A and is an opt compressor.
You might find that it's not aggressive enough for rock. It may also be a bit slow to track fast transients. Should be nice though for vcals and some acoustic instruments. You might want to swop the stock tubes on the 610 at some point if you want to mod it  .The Shadow Hills hardware version is a very good VCA compressor. I'll be interested to see what you make of the vst version. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

This is an Optical Comp and it does sound Killer on Vocals The UAD stuff is sort of half VST, half Hardware, in that they are not just using Software, but leverage UAD hardware accelleration to provide a level of sonic detail that a software only VST can't often match. The UAD processor cards are not cheap, but IMHO the UAD plugins sound just amazing. Far and away the best emulations of actual hardware that I've ever heard. Short of spending tens of thousands of dollars on actual hardware, the UAD stuff is as close as one might get.Todd QUOTE (tonymiro @ Oct 30 2012, 06:17 AM)  If I remember correctly the 610 is a bit of hybrid as it's almost like a leveling preamp.

There is a UAD version of several optical compressors. Here is a list. http://www.uaudio.com/store/plug-in-bundle...ors-bundle.html The UAD plugins are NOT software only, they require a UAD HARDWARE PROCESSOR in order to run. The plugins are fairly cheap, but the hardware starts at about $1000. But they all do sound amazing. Todd This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Oct 30 2012, 06:47 PM |
