Pro tip: to get lower ratio, reduce the incoming audio signal level into the compressor and use deeper threshold instead. (use the Level Cal knob, top right corner)

Simple digital feedback usually needs at least a one sample delay. For the most part, that's not enough to mention, but it's definitely a longer delay than you'd get in analog feedback. Course, feedback compression is mathematically indistinguishable from feedforward compression with a clean blend, which requires no delay at all.

@psybursonic

I did a quick shootout with the demo Vs MU. They sound different, both great. Mu excelled more at the warm gluey vibe, the islander had a bit more range of what it could do and was capable of some faster snappier compression to my ear (for a Vari-Mu). It’s attack and release seem more program dependent and it feels a little more idiot proof to me in that all the settings are just different flavors of good. The saturation is very different from Mu, and it can get a brighter sound without being hash. Both are good, and after trying the demo I want to buy it not as a replacement for Mu but as another good option to have in some situations.

Sorry to hear you still haven't mastered your UF-8. You have to change the control knob mode to plugin to get it to act as your mouse wheel button.(depressing it). The plugin has to support mouse wheel scroll controls for it to work. Test by hovering over a plugin control and using the scroll wheel to change parameters. If you're successful, then the UF-8 can control it. I use the encoder section on my left UF8 as transport control and my right UF-8 as plugin control. 😊

But isn't it just a plain old digital compressor and not a great analog modeled compressor? As it he's no saturation or anything on it. Every single piece of analog kit does have those things. And each one is unique because of that and why we want plugin versions of it, and why your studio is all analog! So where the analog saturation here? I don't see it, and in youtube am certainly not gonna hear it.... Soooo basically it's just a standard compressor you get in your daw that's wrapped in an analog box. Not sure why you like it.
