I've just had half a day with these and i LOVE em!
As said they're dead easy to dial in... VERY musical!... much more musical than the included comps/EQs...
I recorded a Taylor Acoustic last week using a M/S mic config and i've just been tweaking it with them..... the difference is worlds apart! The EQ add a very subtle 'sheen' and slightly 'bitier' mids without being snarly, the low end is lovely and hollow but still warm.
The comp is pretty handy too... flattened the taylor with it just a touch.. you can hear it but it's nice and fat and warm again.
Used the two of them on a snare track from BFD2 also.... a fairly damped ludwig black beauty, i was fairly happy with the original sound i had but even 'nuking' the snare with compression it still sounded wonderful!
Need to do some serious thinking over the next month i think......
