Report so far LOL:
Spent an hour Saturday afternoon putting, Kick, Snare, Vocals, through it (forgot to try bass), anyway I could get a result but not my go to compressor. Sunday had
a session on tracking harmonica for an album, during the playback at the end of the day put it through the Yamaha, HAY! this works, so the Yamaha is now my go to Harmonica compressor , so I suppose it stays.
The other thing it could work on is to have it on a vocal track just grabbing a little and have a good old
valve compressor after it, I will let you know if I get a chance to try this soon.
I should say that this unit came out of a radio station and was like new, however it had whiteout all over the front showing where to put the knobs, so this meant the knobs had not moved for years and as such when I plugged it in the pots were very noisy. So I pulled the lid off and cleaned the pots up (and cleaned off the whiteout), all quiet now. This unit is very well made and a quality item of gear.
Oh and the whiteout settings were crap LOL.
