Al Krow Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/2018NEWS.shtml It seems that Cyrus Heiduska (Mr Ovnilabs) has given up on doing new reviews (apologies if this is 'old news'). Real shame - his website is generally regarded as the place to go to for all things compressor related, and I'm surprised that he's not had more support from the bass communities on both sides of the pond and / or any tips on how to monetise his offering e.g. some form of subscription model etc. I was also a little taken aback that he let a previous bad customer experience rule out doing reviews of TC pedals and in particular the TC Spectracomp, which seems to be one of BCer's most popular models - but hopefully that doesn't detract from the quality of his work elsewhere. It's going to leave a bit of gap in the market. @Dood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The59Sound Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 That's a shame. He should be congratulated for the amount of time and effort that went into that website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to be able to do say, 5 pedals of the same type, from all different manufacturers at a time to compare them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt on your Bass? Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 That is a shame. Absolutely splendid resource for compression. I've visited and revisited the site so many times over the last few years since discovering. It reads as a real labour of love. Didn't realise there was bad feeling or experience around tc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosi Y'Anarchy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I used to spend so much time on Bongomania's site. That's a real shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burno70 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Ah, sad news. As mentioned above, it was the go to site for compressor reviews. I hope he passes the mantle on to someone else rather than lets it die. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there's an opportunity here to do a BassChat reviews vlog thing. @ped? Time allowing, I could do that and upload directly to my YouTube.
