Yea - there should be another choice - Software Compressor....

I also play mostly through a laptop and I do use compression here and there.

Thanks for all the responses. I added software as an option.

edit: Adding a poll option apparently deleted the 30 or so previous votes. :roll: Please re-submit your vote. Thanks.

I use a Retrospec Sqeezebox most of the time. A LA-2A in a stompbox more or less. Opto tube compressor. Love it.

Not yet, but I am on the waiting list and to be playing through one in about 10 months.

Hi,

I use two DBX160A (one for each side of the Stick), not as a pumping effect, but as a subtle optimizing of the basicly clean sound. Real easy to use.

4:1 Ratio with maximum of 4db reduction playing the 7th and 8th string around the 7th fret on my Grandstick.

The sound gets clearer, more focused and a lot easier to handle while practise, recording or just having fun.

Cheers

DBX're great! Isn't 160A too old-fasioned?
And do you think, that dbx dual-channel racks will do? 266 (i guess) or any like that? 1066 for eg?
