Dlive has some rocking compressor emulations in it right now. It would be a really great addition to have a master bus compressor added! These compressors have incredibly detailed characteristics and color that sound amazing before even compressing anything. Adding something like that would really make our mixes rock!
An good SSL emulation as well as a nice vari mu emulation would be great indeed.
I do love the opto on most sources, I have to admit it’s great!

+1 - SSL4000 Busscompressor would be nice.
But, dLive has Master-Bus Compressor - the Opto is modeled with LA-2A in mind, which is an Masterbus Compressor. Also the RMS-Compressor is a Master-Compressor.
Third try this: use the VU, RMS or Opto Model, then switch on Parallel-Mode. Turn Dry up to 100%, Wet totally of. Make the compressor working really hard (like 8-12dB compression). Then bring up the Wet. This really rocks, is a trick widely used by top dog studio engineers and is one of the things that is special to iLive/dLive - because parallel compression needs to be phase coherent, which this one is!
