Thanks for doing this Max, such a rare opportunity to hear them in a single video. It would more than awesome, if you could do something similar with a 2 Buss scenario in a complete mix (for the stereo/dual mono units).

For sure, I’ll try and do something like that in the future.

Always happy to see a new Sta-Level video! The snare is just incredible with double-mode and not too much gain reduction. Too bad this time the double-mode was only for a second... Also it's unfortunate that all plugin versions are from the Retro Sta-Level, nothing from Gates! Retro is good but Gates has that special smooth sound.

Ah word, I’ve never seen or heard any of the sta level plug ins. Do you use one? Thanks for watching

@@maxbauhof Not one but three! Antelope Stay-Levin came as a built-in onboard FPGA-effect with this Antelope audio interface so it's good for monitoring as it's (almost) zero-latency but I also use it in mixing on bass. Arturia Tube-Sta is part of their effects bundle and is good for general mixing purposes and finally I've got TimP Vari-Level from Nebula world which means it's CPU hungry so can't splash it to every track. All the 3 are pretty good and in regular use. Haven't tested the new Acustica Smoke - I've got enough Retro Sta-Level plugins already! But would buy immediately if somebody made a plugin based on that lovely GATES Sta-Level...

Mostly liked the sound of emi rs124. What else would you use it on?

Electric bass, cleanish electric guitar, acoustic, vocals, anything that you want to soften and bloom the sound a little.

Thanks for the demo. I’m looking for a nice vocal compressor that could handle rhythmic vocals like rap. Was looking at a CL1B but they’re back ordered. Would the HG2 be good for this or is there something else you can recommend for a 3-4K budget? I was looking at HG2, 1176ln and distressor at the moment.

Hmm the HG2 or BG2? The HG2 is a distortion box which is cool but I’d say you can’t go wrong with the 1176 or distressor.
