I hate compression and as a true vinyl/analog lover, it's not something I'll use. Great condition! I have a dbx II 128 that I, honestly, really don’t need.

It could help with fast attack vocals and instrumentals. If you are putting your recordings back out to CD I'm wondering if you could actually gain some dynamic range by using the expander? Could you actually reach the full potential of CD media? I don't know but you may already be doing that without an expander. You can get crazy and use it to add some serious punch to your music, it wouldn't be natural but you could just call it an effect and make no apologies. On eBay the 119 should bring bids between $60-$110 depending on the condition.

I usually use a preset on a software plugin. Is it any use in a studio situation for recording vocals etc. or is it worth anything on ebay??? Any info would be appreciated. Cheeers Michael Hi David
