Dear Tom,
i personally don't find much similarity between TG and 33609! Neve is extremely flexible and can be relatively subtle and transparent. TG is a very different beast. Subtlety is not really in it's vocabulary. i regularly use both. I have also used original TG console many times. I fond that the original channel comps are a bit more subtle than the chandler, but not a lot! These puppies REALLY suck, and i say that with the utmost of respect! I do find the EMI to be a bit of a one trick pony to be honest, but WHAT a one trick pony! Awesome on guitars, bass, acoustic, etc, etc. Somewhat uncontrolable on a sub-group/mix-bus imho, unlesss you want that "Effecty" sound. Rather like the SSL channel comps, they are great as a bit of compression in addition to whatever else you fancy when mixing on a TG Console. I am NOT comparing them to the SSL channel comps, tho!
Suck 'em and see!
