"DC1A is the little brother of the upcoming compression monster DC8C. I've taken one of my favorite compression styles from DC8C and put it into a two control context. It's inspired by classic opto and FET designs.
DC1A is heavily program dependent, so is the saturation."

-a new RELAXED mode has been added to make it more flexible.
Relaxed mode can be descripted as cleaner and slower compression compared to the original mode.

I don't need any more comps myself but the full version of this might be a good $32.00 investment for those who do.

Waking up an old thread, but I've been using the DC1a on a couple of tracks and it is smooth. I may spring for the full version. Not sure how it compares technically, but for me it is perhaps smoother than the PC2a. Impressive sounding compressor!

I have the DC8C. It's a versatile & inexpensive comp.
The VUMT is also worth checking out.

I think I will get the DC8C. 

I can't get over the nice round sound without stepping on the highs this little comp produces. What a gem!
