Why'd I wait..
I always loved this little box. UA nailed it of course. Nothing else gives me that pop like the dbx 160. THx!

Best Drums Compressor!
So easy to use takes just a few seconds to tweak and BAM I got that snare sound that i was looking for. Works great on any type of percussive source Just like the Hardware and it's very Dsp friendly as well which is a big plus. A must have Compressor!

Talk about easy!!!
When they say easy to use... oh man they mean it!!! Anything you put the 160 on, it just works. It adds flavor to the harmonics. I love it!
J. Mairena
Love it on drums!
Been recording a lot of drums using it and couldn't be happier.

Great
Great gear, great emulation! I just wish UAD would revamp the UI. The plugin windows is too small for nowadays monitor res.

Punch and hard sound over every sampler you want
Warm, tight and punch sound. I really love the way this compresor make my samplers sounds bigger and great!

Want punchy drums, GET THIS.
This plugin just delivers punch and in your face drum sounds. I use it on my kick and snare and it seriously took them from ok to being present, punchy and powerful. A really useful tool for tracking / mixing.

DBX 160 Classic
Easy to use and and poweful compression !
R. Gagl
Big little thing
My first impression was: Oh how pathetic it looks!! Hard to find it again once it got lost between other open plugins...Really, it needs to be scalable! OK - the original was a tiny little box, but...Under the little hood it sounds as you´d expect it from Universal Audio: Big! Great on drums. I definitely would use it more often - but its guy stops me from really loving it. Call me crazy.

Simple and effective
What a great and simple to use compressor. It was always my go to compressor for bass guitar but I have used it on vocals and guitars too, it sounds greats

Compressor with character
This compressor has a very unique quality to it. If you like color for drums or guitar, look no further. Very easy to dial in just the right squish. The 160 is NOT for those looking for clear, clean & pristine.

I own the hardware
This plugin is incredibly simple to use but most effective.
It sounds just like my original DBX160 unit.
E. Halterman
I use this on individual drum tracks!
This takes me back to the 90s, when I used the hardware version. I actually like this one better than the hardware! Easier in every way! Sounds even better to my ears!
D. Pierce
Works as advertised
You'll need very little compressor experience getting this one to sound good on all sorts of sounds, not just bass. One of my simple but powerful favorites.

My go to for kick drum and toms
Has this clicky thing happening which always makes it a good choise to tighten and give more presence to drums, in particular kick drum
