@@d3vp131 I know it's a mix-bus compressor. I never said that it wasn't. I was just giving my opinion. Look at the key words I used. I said I "think" it's more designed for mastering. The key word here "think" isn't absolute. So although it's a mix-bus compressor I think this specific compressor is better built for mastering. That's my opinion. But I never called it a "Mastering Bus Processor". If I did then your comment would be valid. 🧐. Ohh and I also forgot to add. Sometimes a mix-bus compressor can also be called a stereo bus or master bus compressor meaning it's the final compressor added into your entire mix. This is why a mix-bus compressor is so known for mastering.

Everybody says it's not as complicated as it looks, but all the secondary functions... this is something that definitely needs some time getting familiar with. I'm sure SSL did as good of a job as they could with everything this can do. But it is, at first blush, one of the more complicated 2-bus processors I've seen in recent memory. I wish we could have heard a level-matched comparison with the input vs. the output. In this example the output was noticeably louder.

Hey, Hector! I’m glad that you enjoyed the video. Yes, you can certainly use that compressor for mastering. That’s the beauty of having the 2 channels, and the ability to link them together to run a stereo 2-track into the unit. I would personally put that somewhere toward the end of my chain before I do any type of limiting to the master track. But you could also use this as your limiting compressor, as you can run the ratio 20:1 (standard for limiting audio). These units have a ton of flexibility for most any purpose you can imagine.

I imagine it depends on the sound you like and what you're able to get out of your gear. I can have the best equipment in the world but being able to squeeze out the full capabilities of the gear is the goal. Knowing how to record, track, mix and master plus making a good song / music that, 1. You like, 2. That the masses like, if the masses is your target. I've made good songs and not so good songs. Good mixes and not so good mixes. Sometimes I get lucky, with a little experience. SSL, NEVE. Both companies have great reputations, nothing to sneeze at! This is coming from a Presonus, ART, Focusrite home studio guy. Maybe if I had more professional training, or more experience, maybe I would feel different but there are many good companies with differences to choose from.
