I use the JJP Puigchild and Puigtec's also. Probably use the Puigchild too much!

Am I crazy for still liking Renaissance Comp? It was one of the first "good" compressors I got and I find I still  get a lot of use out of it. It sounds pleasant and doesn't color nearly as much as the ProChannel ones. Any recommendations for an "upgrade" from RComp that's in a similar vein?

Nothing at all wrong with the Renaissance Comp.

I think it qualifies as "vintage" by now :)

Definitely been around a while. I like all the Renaissance plugs. I especially liked the de-esser.

Vintage plugin, I wonder if I can get a higher price for them now?

Thanks everyone,  very helpful feedback!
 
I'll checkout Sonar LA-2A first then others.

It's called the CA-2A Leveling Amplifier. It's available as both a VST and ProChannel module.

THe CA-2A is very good.  For an 1176 try the softube Mix bundle that Cake had special priced a while back.  A half step up from the SONAR one, plus you get some other goodies.
 
But the SONAR 1176 ain't bad, just not so "vintage", but if you get X3 producer you have Nomad Audio blue tubes, which is vintage and you get more modules than you can shake a rattle at.
