The Best Compressor - And You Don't Have To Steal It

Okay, I've been recommended this compressor more than 20 or so times over the years, I've downloaded it a couple of times, think I even installed it a few times, I think I even instantiated it, and still never used it.
Stupidity that can only be matched by my other feats of stupidity.
There it is.
This thing is called Molot, I swear at some point, all the controls were in Russian, or at some point, I was Russian, and all the controls were in English. Either way, there is seemingly a lot there. I use a couple of high value compressors, but after working with this over the drum buss, I am simply amazed.
I thoroughly recommend dl'ing it, installing it, instantiating it, and actually using it once to see what it is about.

Oh yeah, totally free too. One of the largest wtf's out there.

I stole it anyways because fuck you.
Really though, 'The Best Compressor' had me
Haven't actually tried it though so who knows. Is it like the Softube Dyna-mite? That thing is a FSU box.

Dyna-mite is more of a destroyer. This is definitely in the range of FSU, but the results are way more usable. It is like dirty clean, or clean dirty. Like if you want to hear the compression, this is killer.

No, Jean Cluade van Damn, you miss my meaning.

Oddly enough I recall DLing/using this a couple times right after it came out, but it didn't stand out particularly at the time. What kinda jobs is it good for?

1. Turning in a tune for the TUNA! challenge. Start now, I'm going to.
2. FX compression, but in a real usable way. I can make drums CUT with this.

I can't tell you how many people have recommended this over the last couple of years. I'm so slow.
I find myself getting the sounds I want so quickly. Love all the m/s and parallel it does. I've still got it on the drumbuss for the track, I'm loving it.

I never troll. I can be ironic, I can be facetious, I can be a dick. I can be a lot of things. But I'm not trolling.
