About the BBE MaxCom Dual Channel Compressor Limiter Gate
The BBE MaxCom is a highly sophisticated dual-channel compressor and limiter with gate; housed in a compact and easy-to-use package. It provides a live or recorded mix with all the clean, clear punch that only a truly professional dynamics controller can. However, the MaxCom is much more than a high-quality, superbly engineered compressor/limiter.
BBE MaxCom Dual Channel Compressor Limiter Gate Reviews
Before you go buying a compressor, you have to remember that the quality of the sound (noise, hum, hiss) that goes into a compressor will ultimately determine the quality that comes out. If the signal going in is noisey, the signal coming out will be noisey, and likely more so. I have read many reviews about this compressor adding noise and being unusable, but unless they got a dud (unlikely in my experence), I think these people do not understand what a compressor does and how it works. I also question their ability to properly hook one up. My opinion is that this piece of gear is created with the intended purpose is as a final compression just before going out to the poweramp and main speakers. BBE created the Sonic Maximaizer with this application in mind and the inclusion of this feature leads me to believe that this compressor is meant for that. As a main stereo compressor/limiter, this piece of gear works flawlessly. Make sure you use properly made BALANCED cables in and out and you will have nice transparent sound. I only use it for my mains, but given its performance, I wouldnt doubt that it has great potential as part of a bass or guitar rig, and even for keys. I wouldn't hesitate to try it there, and most who know what their doing agree in other reviews. For recording, its obviously not a "super-high-end" compressor, but I can't see why (again, if used properly and hooked up correctly) it wouldnt work out for home studio use.
