All user reviews for the Boss RCL-10 Compressor Limiter

I did with this little rack big sound discs which have been marketed by multinationals without any problems. Must be recorded on analog tape (Fostex 8 or 16 track) and that is where the mixing of digital takes a staggering scale.
I am a professional arranger of the disc and I used it in my home studio all the time, it is very effective and easy to use.

Now, we must compare like with like, it sure compressors an SSL console or NIVE are in the firmament of the best compressors in the world but the price is prohibitive for us.

UTILIZATION

SIMPLE configuration
Easy to adjust ear effects.

SOUND QUALITY

SUPER !!!

OVERALL OPINION

Awesome and cheap !!!
I used it for 20 years, without any fault on any kind of music.

YES I was working in parallel, only in professional studios, and
it allowed me to compare and sharpen my setting at home.

Compressor / Expander Gate, side-chainable,

Connectivity: RCA jack and

VCA compressor

UTILIZATION

very easy to edit, there are all the standard functions, in their classic name (threshold, ratio, attack, release
decay and threshold settings for the Gate, and volume knob "make up gain" output.

SOUND QUALITY

the sound quality is not his forte, it is rather its ease of use and the next "vintage" it brings to her (eg,. a Kick or Snare 808)
do not bother trying to get modern effects (Guetta, Justice ...), it will be rather for lovers 80's sounds a little cheap

it blows not bad, but the gate is fortunately very effective (a little nag), and manages to make it disappear completely but cutting a little "tail" sounds: the effect just be great if desired (on reverbs like "gated drums") but soon enough annoying otherwise we hear little "click" to close the gate, so there goes the decay: the breath and reappears ...

OVERALL OPINION

for a beginner or a first compressor, despite a Quick take snuff, I would recommend something more transparent, less anecdotal level sound (unless you're looking to just make the old House / Techno 80s), the Boss CL-50 is better (more "headroom"), more transparent, with a very similar ergonomics. Symetrix some models (425, 525 ...) are still not too expensive and would correspond better to use "lambda".
