MHB Red

An Indispensable Analog Colour box!

Like yourself, I was thinking "why do I need another compressor?" But then I recalled the significant and unique low end extension the MHB Green has brought to anything I'd choose to use it on. I find that more often than not, Kazrog is in the business of creating magic these days. The MHB Red is no exception. This is more of a color box than a compressor. It simply brings things to life in a most musically delightful and classic analog way. I'm not really looking for another compressor, I have them all. But the density, presence, and truly analog flavor this box imparts have made it indispensable. Delicioso!

Solid!!

I got this as an alternative to the UnFairchild and it is perfect. Sounds great, useful presets, easy to use

Stellar

I was quite curious about this one, as I've not used a real 666 before and to my knowledge there is no other plugin out there that emulates it. Being a hybrid-opto, I've let it replace my outboard LA2A clone as well as my LA2A plugins on a couple of projects lately, and I've been mightily impressed by the tone and movement of the MHB Red. Very musical compression, and the THD tube saturation sounds fantastic. Easy to dial in the result you're after, and if ever lost there are amazing presets to choose from. This might just be my go-to compressor now for vocals, at least for vocals that require saturation. The release times are fast and slow enough to fit most BPM, so I imagine it can be used on a wide array of songs and genres. Wonderful plugin.
