The VSC-2 is called the “Quad Compressor” because it uses 4 hand built [discrete]VCAs. The VCA design is called the “1979” as a nod toward the best VCA based compressors of the 70s and 80s often found in classic SSL consoles and classic sounding DBX devices... but that is where the similarity ends!!
