Its always either film scores, musical theater stuff, or church choirs. When we were screwing around after the sessions were over, I was able to pick the 33609 apart from the SSL bus comp pretty consistently on a digitally level matched, bounced/printed blind test in the actual control room.Īgain, when I use this on the 2 bus, its never pop or rock. All the studios I track film scores at have at least one of these.
Here (in the picture below) are the settings I typical start with for 2 bus use. On the rare occasions where I track in a large studio, I love to use it on orchestras and choirs. So the 33609 is a diode bridge compressor that’s great on a 2 bus and similar in Vibe to the Focusrite Red 3 in that it compresses gently without digging.
I really like all 3, though the Dyna-Mu I’m still trying to get my head around as to what it’s best on. The Bus Compressor is supposed to be an emulation of the SSL Bus Compressor, the Dyna-Mu is supposed to be an emulation of the Manley Vari-Mu, and the Precision Comp/Limiter is supposed to be an emulation of the Neve 33609.
