    Nice rack. 

    Pun intended.

    On a serious note, what does the distressor do? I've never seen or heard of a unit like that.

    It's a compressor. And a little more. It's touted as a LA2A and 1176 in one unit.

    There are some good emulations out there. The native UAD version is available as well as Slate and some others I can't remember right now.

    So, all the magic is in the label maker, ya?  Like, if you put "Coffee Maker" on one of the units then that's what it will do, right? 😆

    If only I drank coffee, or wine or beer or whiskey etc.

    Maybe I'll just label one "Plugin Acquisition Manager".

    @Bapu

    After running kick and snare through Distressor do you also run them through the drum buss and the Heritage? Or you keep them separate?

    The first mix I did I put the affected Distressor kick and snare thru the Heritage compressor.

    Foot note: the DAW I use allows me to decide the balance between wet and dry for the Distressors. The goal will be to find the right balance between the tracks with Distressors and the pushing into the Heritage.

    ACOUSTIC 260 it was.

    The last cover band I was in (senior year in high school), one of our guitarists had one of those for performances. He had an ACOUSTIC 160 (IIRC) for rehearsals.

    He was from a pretty well off family.

    The other guitarist and I only had one amp each. ?

    And the fact that he had his own mixer up on stage with him. Looked like it was going to that Acoustic amp behind him with the full range speakers. Appeared to be 2x15" and the horn. That was cutting edge for the time.

    ACOUSTIC 260 it was.
