very good old (not vintage ) compressors -

symetrix 501
yamaha gc2020 (original)

a nice free compressor is the roughrider compressor, I typically use it on a bass line or drum channel but I believe it would compliment an SP-resample joint well

I just started making music without my computer last night so I will probably be trying this out myself when I get to the final/mastering stage..

i was supposed to get the rnc yesterday but the store didnt recieve it yet, SO PISSD RITE NAW

I've got Alesis NanoCompressor. I don't use it too much, but when I do, it does the trick. I also have two broadcast monophonic compressors I use in parallel (Rolls GLC) now and then which are full analog. They're okay, but they're better for limiting than compressing as they're not intended to be musical but are for general radio broadcast.

I use the maschine compressor , it is good ... Always the 404OG: Vinyle sim , and ableton for the sidechaining otherwise . I'm curious about your new compressor

speaking of MFX12 compressor on 404og it seems whenever i use it, theres always a loud noise in the beginning..for instance i did this tonight https://soundcloud.com/earwaxmelter/typewrite/s-0nPyh
and it has that loud noise at 7 seconds. does this happen to any of you?

sorry if im hijacking your post, i can make a new post if that'd be better

That's the attack of the compressor. Unless it has lookahead (which only exists in software as it looks at the buffer before applying) you're going to get that, especially when you're overdriving the compressor like that. You went from dead silent (where it raised the noise floor up) to playing sounds, like a -60dB to 0dB jump instantly. No hardware compressor is going to catch that perfectly.

well its comp related so its not really hijacking, the noise at the beginning is probably just the compressor processing the shit out of the noisy frequencies that you cant hear when the signal is uncompressed.

EDIT: btw still no rnc, i called at the store today and the fuckin thing aint even shipped yet... SSSO PISSED

BURN THE STORE

yea but after i get the rnc.. foreel im just waiting for it to process the lvvvl//antoje tape.. that's the only reason why its not released yet...
