A compact and cost-effective stereo compressor.
The Really Nice Compressor (RNC) from FMR Audio is a compact and cost-effective stereo compressor with a high-fidelity audio path and compression scheme. The RNC provides two modes of operation. One allows the RNC to be used for special effects, like snappy snares or popping basses. The other provides near-invisible signal compression for sensitive material where compression artifacts are less desirable (like natural vocals, acoustic guitar, or the program bus). The RNC yields clean, airy compression with few artifacts and little high-end loss, even at massive gain reduction. The RNC achieves such high performance at a low cost by using using a microprocessor to replace discrete sidechain components (resistors, diodes, capacitors, opamps, transistors, etc.) with chunks of software, thereby reducing the component cost. This approach, however, still processes the main audio in the analog domain, avoiding the problems associated with digital audio conversion like latency and digital artifacts. Even the problem of "scratchy" pots and switches are avoided, as no audio flows through the front-panel controls. The front-panel pots and swtiches merely feed DC voltages to the microprocessor and it takes care of adjusting parameters and signal path with components—like sealed-relays and VCAs—located close to the input/output jacks, avoiding noise pickup and audio quality reduction due to aging controls. Thanks to this blend of technology, the RNC offers the accuracy and precision of digital control with the clean tonal character of an all-analog signal path.

The hype is real. Super clean compression, very effective and transparent, easy to use, incredible value.

RNC 1773 Compressor is a really good and effective processor. Does not color the sound and does the job in the end result. Nice little glue comp on my 2 buss, better than a plugin... Super Nice mode is special... You have to learn it to appreciate it!
