Anyone here ever used one? I was wondering about using this on the Cubase
mix bus.

Never used one, but keep in mind it's an opto unit... might be
too slow for some of your needs (like the faster-tempo bluegrass
stuff).

I know Michael Brauer (Coldplay etc) uses one in his mix buss chain--almost
no compression--more for the tube section and eq i believe...

I use them.. Okay as a pre . A bit noisy and EQ is not as surgical as others.

Not impressed..

Actually, the VT737 is the pre...the VT747 is a stereo compressor. ;-)

I've got a 737 and I use the compressor and EQ quite a bit as a mix insert.
The preamp is adequate but not something I'm in love with. The 737 makes an
absolutely stellar bass DI for tracking though.
