The Slightly Rude Compressor
The Slightly Rude Compressor was Bomb Factory's first completely custom compressor design. Used conservatively, it sounds beautiful on vocals, drums, guitars, and piano. Pushed hard, it's unique and aggressive. The stereo version is specifically designed to solve the problems that often plague digital mixes.
If your final mixes need a lot more impact and a little less of that "digital sound," look no further.

The slightly rude compressor!!! :giggle:
