I had one for a few days a friend brought it over.
Sounded cool in my limited experience with it but I didn't really get a good feel for it.

You might also check out a Soundelux U99.
I also have a U195 and it's a good workhorse but I like the U99 more.
Great vocal mic...works on OH as well.
They can be had for less than 2K.

Some of this may have to do with the band.

I saw Brian and extended gang do the complete Smile album a few months ago and it was AMAZING.
Just spot on.
Great players and singers.Not a wrong note or false step all night.

If you have a chance go see this live.

By definition 1:1 is not compressing with or without the brit mode. The brit mode does make the input meters go crazy though. The meters may be lighting up but nothing should be getting compressed at 1:1...maybe distorted/added harmonics/ midrange emphasis/but not compression. BTW the Distressors ar...
