I believe I have too high hopes for in the box compression. Will work more with this one before final verdict though, and have not given it a fair workaround yet to get to know it. But it does not really wow me yet. And perhaps because I can get the wow from hardware, and compared to that, software just usually does not do it to me.. I find almost all software adding something that gives a (something of a)modern sound(high pitched sound that is not as organic and round to me as the original track) when processed. Most producers are ok with this, and most listeners don't know what I am talking about.. I am one of those who usually prefer the original track before software processing. But in a mix you lack glue, level, and all the other aspects that is needed for a song to stick.. And this of course you can get done pretty well with lets say VBC.. If you are ok with what software usually does, and/or don't know what I am talking about, you might be thrilled with this product :)
