    Good note about the iLok requirements.

    I’ve personally found 1176-style FET compressors good on drums, especially with parallel compression in the all buttons in mode. It can be a really fast compressor so like quick transient stuff it does well on. Isn’t the first compressor I would grab for like soft pianos or a delicate vocalist if you’re looking for what its weaknesses are.

    Edit: Also not a good mix bus compressor
