Wouldn't a compressor plugin on the first insert achieve the same results?
Well, it wouldn't because I have both Cl1b and the Software, and these days I never reach for the software vst for it, and the Hardware version is just better sounding overall, has more of a 3d image, nice on the esses etc. I'd say the plugin is 70% there?
