I use it as a character compressor and it serves well as this! Very good on very different material - used it on drumbeats, vox and synthesizers.

Really nice compressor to have in the tool box as far as vibe and color! Not an every time use in my mixes but when I do use it for the application it hits the spot for sure! Happy I grabbed this one!
Sounds Great!

It sounds exactly how you want an opto to sound. The perfect amount of colour, and it adds monstrous gluey low end to your bass in the amp mode. Delete all your other opto's and run with the best.

if you can sell this for 29 dollars how the hell it's normal price worth 299 dollars . This is not a discount , you are making people nervous, I bought this when you were selling for 249 dollars. Now think nobody will ever buy from you unless you make 'discounts' , so please leave this idiotic marketing shit and sell your products for reasonable prices. In this situation this product worth maximum 45 dollars . Make a good judgement than put the right prices . Please consider this as I think I am not the only person who feels like this. Have a good year, lindell plugs rock !

Quickly became one of my favorite compressors. Does so much to the sound, very non linear and colorful. Super thick glue-y optical response, each speed has a personality it's own. Amp mode makes this work well as a saturation and color box. Very solid useful compressor, sounds good on almost everything.
I would use this plugin just because of its GUI...
