got the thing in the middle today - totally stoked. Immediately makes my 80's metal stuff sound better. I'm going to have to learn what I'm doing with it.

Very nice! 
I have only used the plugin version.
How does that sound with 9 year old taint of satan? lol!

looks fun.
is it linked, or stereo, or mono? the two VU meters appear to me a stereo compressor.

It's got that link knob sort of in the middle - it can be off (dual mono), or anywhere from 50% to 100% linked (stereo) using the marked detents - I guess the less than 100% linkage is done with some variable strength side chaining thing (and the "shape" control lets you ignore highs and/or lows)? Not sure. But I usually have it around 70% with the stuff I've been working on recently.
Good on you for seeing what it was - I hadn't notice that I cropped off the sides (it's an API 2500). I'm still learning how to use it - it has a lot of controls. It's pretty much a make-betterizer on a drum bus with very little effort. I'm trying to use on the main 2 buss, too, and I think it will be hit and miss - solid hit so far for my bagpipe and drum stuff and my 80's metal stuff. Sort of miss for the singer songwriter stuff I've been working with, but maybe not - I'm continuing to dick with it.
