| I used to have a Symetrix 501. It was good but at the time it was possibly too transparent for me, I was pretty new to compression in general and it didn't have any "wow" factor for me. I sold it and got an octave pedal. Now I have a better grasp on what I'd like out of a compressor I wouldn't mind trying one out again some day. That said my FEA Dual Band Compressor is the bee's knees.
I've always wanted to try a SWR Interstellar Overdrive but I have no experience there. I only know of one other rack mount distortion unit, the Aguilar Aggro. There's just so much dirt flavor out there in stomp-box format why go for a rack unit?
Sorry I don't have a lot of experience with rack mounted gear but I hope that gets the ball rolling.
