3630 Compressor by Alesis

Being the Gear Head that I am, I find myself constantly browsing the Internet and the music catalogs to see what new gear is on the market.

In my research, I was able to find very few products that have stood the test of time. One of these products is the 3630 compressor from Alesis.
