New version of my last question - I am now convinced to try one out. Thus far, I've been looking at some cheap Boss CS-2s on ebay, or the more pricey, but presumably better, AnalogMan compROSSor. The Bicomp sounds even cooler, but I can't wait three months, I need something in the next few weeks.
So I guess my question is, has anyone tried out the comprossor, is it appreciably better than the dynacomp reissues that are out, and what else should I consider before deciding?
ETA: I've worked in studios and have a rudimentary one at home, so I do understand what compressors do and do not do. I actually own an Alesis 3630 and a DBX 1066 in my recording rack, so I understand quite intimately the heartbreak of a bad compressor and the worthiness of a good one. Therefore, spending the $200+ on the analog man stuff does not seem at all excessive to me, just potentially unnecessary. Lemme know.
