    Go team 😅 seriously we did good with this one. It would have been easy to leave this video by the wayside. I'm glad we put in the work to finish it.

    Are you going to make any videos about the dbx style compressors? I have a dbx and would like to know how to use it.

      There's no "dbx style", that's just the company that makes them and both 160 and 165 are VCAs.

    In which cases use an Opto or a Vari-Mu compressor on synths?

      I really like the 609 diod by arturia on synths.. medium to slow attack and a medium to fast release depending on how it's played and adding the virtual drive in the advanced section

    What would the compressor on an Avalon 737 vst be? Also what about something like the distressor? Thanks for the info, I wrote it down.

      An avalon is optical, the distressor is fet iirc

      @@vektacularthe distressor is actually (🤓) vca. It’s also, however, an incredibly versatile compressor that can mimic the behavior of fets or optos or anything really.

    Opto is faster. It uses light. If you are just using plugins, all you are using is a FET, due to the computer hardware. RAMs, CPUs, SDs, all made from FETransistors.

      right, but it can replicate things, because sound is not that dense, they can keep the fast features of a FET

    Why making videos for UA-cam? To inform/teach people about something. Please be informed regarding the subjects you're talking about. Don't make a video, just to make a video. (example: "I believe" this is based on the SSL 4000, "I think" from the 70's maybe). This just confirms you don't know what you're talking about, you're just saying stuff that other people are saying about these products :( #WhyAreYouAyouTuber Sorry, but im not trying to hate, im trying to filter out what info is constructive what what info is insufficient.
