Waves Abbey Road RS124 Compressor Plug-in Reviews
The Waves Abbey Road RS124 Compressor is a spot-on model of the legendary studio’s one-of-a-kind tube comp. Used throughout the 1960s, the original RS124 was essential to the sounds of the Beatles’ studio catalog — injecting everything that passed through it with a velvety-smooth sound, all while yielding sublime-sounding dynamics control. Developed in cooperation with Abbey Road Studios, the RS124 plug-in delivers the same sonic character as the original hardware. The plug-in includes two distinctive RS124 flavors, plus a hyper-aggressive Super-Fuse mode that’s guaranteed to add an exhilarating edge to every track you instantiate it on. A sidechain highpass filter, a Mix knob, and M-S operation add to this analog-modeled compressor plug-in’s versatility. The RS124 Compressor will lend the unmistakable sonic footprint of ‘60s-era Abbey Road to your projects. Once you own it, you’ll want to use it on all of your tracks!

Drums!
This guy is great on kick and toms, specifically. I mostly mix heavy and deathmetal.
Me likey
I'm really liking this one. I got this on sale with the Abbey Road bundle. So far, it sounds good on everything I've inserted. Gritty, old-school, sits in the mix, lots of character, overall really quite good. This is quickly becoming one of my go-to comp plug-ins for when I want that coloration.
Waves Abbey Road RS124 compressor
Very smooth. It does color the sound some but I like how it takes off a little bit of the digital edge.
