    for "grabbing the transients" purpose i either go with MJUC or Pro C (slow attack, fairly fast release), when it comes to smashing things, i'm going with whatever 1176 emulations in the toolbox, but i often use Black 76, maybe Kramer PIE for drum room mics. That being said, whatever compressor your DAW gives you might actually be able to kind of do everything in a single plugin...

    This is contradictory.

    I recently discovered a new one that will be my go to for a while: Lindell 354E - Neve 2254E™ Diode Bridge Multiband Compressor.
    It´s in the Lindell Bundle at the sister site.

    I never feel the need to use a compressor. :dunno:
    Even for sidechaining, I use LFOTOOL, or TRACKSPACER or SHAPERBOX 2.

    that was in over my head when it comes to "letting the transients through". Maybe there's a better term...
