Re: Presonus ACP88 versus KT Squareone DynamicsPresonus ACP88 is a poor quality unit sonically. In short, the gate control is very limited and they click when opening. The Compressors are very touchy and if you see more than 3db of compression on the meters its like taking the claw end of a hammer to a waveform.The Klark unit is better but not by much. Klunky controls again and you've either got a compressor OR gate, not both.I feel like you're asking this question because you want to purchase something that traveling engineers will appreciate. In that case, get something respectable that everyone is familiar with. All of the following can be had affordably used in great condition:Drawmer DS404 Quad GateDrawmer DL441 Quad CompBSS DPR-504 Quad GateBSS DPR-404 Quad CompHope this helps.
