Somebody recommended me to get one to punch through the mix more. Im not too sure but I sure wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of these babies and trying one out![/quote] yeah its definatley worth a try mate as far as i know this unit works best when used in the effects loop of your amp! compressors do take a lot of experimenting at first and can be hard to get to grips with so dont give up on it if you dont understand it at first! (im no expert but if it sounds good to you then it is good!!) i just use it to keep my finger style playing in check and then when i play slap it really kicks in! makin pretty heavy slap playin possible without it gettin out of control loud!!! i used it again tonight and for me its sounds just great, ive had a few compressor pedals( ebs, aphex) and i much prefer this to both of them! good luck with it mate

hey i just bought this from sound control today!! [url="http://www.dbxpro.com/266XL/266XL.php"]http://www.dbxpro.com/266XL/266XL.php[/url] i have to say that its amazing value!! i got mine for 75 quid!! brand new!! just check the spec for yourself!! took it to a fairly low level band practice tonight and hooked it up to the effects loop of my trace combo and it sounds really good! pretty comprehensive controls for all you fine tuning people out there but its also a few buttons on it that make gettin a good overall sound a breeze!! worth a try for anyone looking for something versitile becauase its two channel with both XLR and normal jack inputs and outputs! so it will work with anything!! good for the studio 2 i'd imagine!! get your self one and see what you think

Chat with Andy there and explain the sound you want, and he'll do you a custom pair. I think they are a great price too.[/quote] +1 ive just put a set of wizard 84's in my bravewood jazz!! awesome sound!! and the best customer service i have ever had!! mine were ordered on a tuesday, they made them that day and were at my house by thursday morning!! unbeatable!! andy is a legend!!
