Great 2 bus and drum bus compressor

I got this compressor from Sweetwater a couple of months ago and am really enjoying it. I had been previously been using SSL Bus compressor plugins and I must say that I prefer this by a mile. I've tried level matching mixes run through the plugs and then through the 7720 with the same parameters and the 7720 wins every time. The high end is far better through the 7720/ Additionaly the internal sidechain to allow you to keep low frequencies from making the compressor hit is a great extra feature that is not available on the original hardware or software SSL pieces.

This is a nice transparent comp for Drum busses too.

Very easy to work with and dial in quickly and not a lot more expensive than some of the high end plug in emulations of the SSL mixbus compressor

Solid Comp, Great Value

We have the 7720 in my studio, and I've been using it for 6 months now. It's obviously styled off the SSL bus compressor, and the sound is comparable (to the plug-in. I don't own a hardware SSL comp). Responsive controls, and a clear sound (doesn't suck much treble out when you hit it hard). I wouldn't call it warm or "gooey," just clear and mostly transparent.

I used it on drum overheads until we got an ART PRO VLA II (which has a killer bite), and now I use it on rooms, just crushing them. I've used it on acoustic and electric a few times, where its clarity is appreciated. I'd say it's not a big "mojo" piece like a LA-2A or something, just a solid comp. I use it on my master bus, with about 3dB of reduction, and it's fantastic. Passes the mix through with great clarity, and even with the needle jumping around, you can't hear artifacts of the compressor working. My main negative comment is that it gets "fizzy"--harsh high end crunch--when you hit it hard and crank the gain up.
Overall, an excellent clean compressor, fantastic value for the money, but if you're looking for warm mojo, look elsewhere. Big ups to Chameleon Labs for an incredible price!
