SSL Buss Compressor Clone Shootout | Smart C1LA vs Plugins

A SSL Style Buss Compressor adds that glue and weight to a mix that we're all so familiar with hearing on countless hit records over the years! In this shootout, I take my favorite hardware SSL Buss Compressor Clone(The Smart Research C1LA) and shoot it out against all of the top plug in offerings from SSL Native, UAD, Slate Digital, Acustica, Brainworx and TimP!
