This compressor is so good, so easy to use, so forgiving even at higher levels of gain reduction. It's become my go to compressor while tracking. And the subtle saturation when it's pushed is sooo good! Most times I don't even think to change the attack and release settings. I also have the Marquis Compressor which might be more versatile (maybe, but Crunchessor is already so versatile), but this one's so easy to dial in.

After seeing the Voxengo name in various forums, I decided to have a look for myself. I had no idea what I was missing...until now. I own a number of competing products, but haven't heard anything quite like these plugins. They look different and come with funny names, but don't let that fool you. They're extremely musical and achieve great results. Within hours of purchasing and installing the Mixing Suite, I have created what is probably my finest mix to date!

It's pretty simple why Voxengo plugins are so good - Alexsey has a better ear compared to other developers.
His plugins sound so 'musical'. I've used many other plugins that technically perform their designed function, yet somehow just don't sound good.
I now have a whole set of expensive plugins that are just taking up drive space. They simply don't sound as good as thier Voxengo counterparts.
