Yeah, when Michael specifically recommended it to me via a Zoom call based on his experience with my song, it became the definition of "must buy". :)

He has a unique action , that alone is worth the try , it's not a 1176 , an ssl , vari mu ect ....UNIK ...

Second : it works really well on any sources  i tried .... hence you know how to use it 

This leads me to the 3rd part : not for kids ,kinda triky to handle  to understand the beauty of all the poissibilities ...

It will handle bass , vocals , drums andything like top of the top , usually comps fail in at least one area .... the KEY is the handling of the feedbck drive and so the freq response , at default setting , you will have some serious meat on lows ;)

 

My take on it :

That's the one. I haven't spent much time with it. I put it on the master bus of a project I'm working on, loaded Michael's preset, and decided I need to purchase it. :)

I might reach out to his assistant and ask if I can share the preset. I wouldn't do that without permission...

Larry and Zo can be celebrity endorsers.  They may bite if you present it that way. On my part I have a special skill at making compressor presets sound horrible when I try to use them so no concern from my side ?

Tell me what you think because I can't use that thing enough, just love it.

How do you use it?  I need to try it again.  I was thrilled to get it in the T&T bundle too, but after a couple of tries I was kind of "meh" and have never really used it...

I tend to use it on sources that need a bit more low and mid presence. I wouldn't feature it on cymbals. I like how it thickens my nasally vocal! Great wet/dry blend. I usually run it at about 70%, anything higher starts to crush stuff.

The downside might be CPU usage, it's not light, and you can't dial it back with any oversampling settings, there are none.
