Extensive compressor reviews and FAQ

ART SC2: Two channel line-level rack unit. As far I can determine it is identical to their "CS2". It has no low-end rolloff, but the highs are a tad muted. The noise level is higher than I'd like, but not terrible. The compression is adequate, with only minor artifacts, and the tone is neutral. The gate chops hard, but at least it doesn't chatter. These sell for super cheap on Ebay. I would say this one is better for bass than the Alesis 3630, but not nearly as good as the Behringer MDX1600.
