    I have a pair of these in my rack. I'd like another pair. Great for vocals, drums, brass, and anything else that can use a little tweaking at times. For a hundred bucks its probably the best stereo compressor / limiter you're going to find anywhere near that price range. I even have an older nano version in my extra's bag for gigs, just in case something needs a little cleaning up.

    This is a GREAT compressor. I bought one used several years ago, and haven't worked with anything yet that matches this unit's subtlety and warmth. I use it direct to record bass, and for analog mixdowns. This is a bargain no musician on a budget should miss!

  • A terrific value

    This unit is a real bargain for the price! I use this unit in my PA system in order to smooth out the dynamic range of the vocals and cymbals. The unit protects the PA from large volume spikes, which can damage your speakers. The unit can be used as 2 single channels or as one stereo channel. The Alesis 3630 is simple to operate just adjust the controls until you get the desired result. The LED meters will help you monitor the changes until you reach the desired results. Overall if you need an inexpensive compressor and gate that can be used for many applications this may be the item you crave.

  • Great for live sound or recording

    From running a live Worship session to recording local bands I only use this compresser. Great price for a low-budget, but you won't get much better. This compressor puts out amazing sound and is very easy to operate. Definately worth it!
