The SansAmps have no compressor control knob, but the SansAmp circuitry does perform compression. At low settings, compression is about all the Drive knob does (that I can hear).

My personal favorite.
Damn! ART has some pretty cool gear on their DISCONTINUED page.
Some people swear by it but some others, with me included, found that it sucks out your mids and just ruins everything.
However if you plan to use it through a PA without an amp, it might be a good solution.
I like the Grove Tubes Ditto. Very warm tone. They must not have sold very well because they stopped making them.

Yeah I would definitely not want that happening.
One of my goals is to have a really flexible setup that can be used for a variety of situations.
I think a DI box with an XLR out for the PA plus 1/4" out for using my amp as a monitor would offer the most flexible option. I could also use the box if going with an IEM setup. If I was only using an amp, I could just skip the DI.
If I can find a Tube PAC, I think that's what I'll get. I really like what I've read about it, plus it looks like it would be just as useful in the studio as live.
I definitely like the J48. That's what we use for the bass at my church. I just would like a little more control over my tone than that.
