Has anyone used one of these compressors extensively?

I've just got mine out of storage and dusted it off.  I never got the opportunities to play with it properly at the time of purchase and then of course... tech moved on.

The review says it works well with semi-pro equipment.  I'd like to use it again because the four channel mixer may provide some interesting options for me.  I am particularly interested to see if anyone's used one at a gig.  I have a Roland TR-606 that will almost certainly sound better running through one of the channels and mixed with my bass on t'other.  Instant one man rhythm section - hoorah!

I have a Zoom B3 with several compressor models on it too.  It should be fun comparing new and old tech.

I don’t remember much about it except it though.

I don't think this came out as intended.  As long as you don't remember anything bad about it, I'm happy.

I'm interested to hear what you used it for because you say you used it a lot.  Were you using it with the X15 four track or with other stuff?

Yes, I had an X-15. The NM-15 helped with adding an additional live track when bouncing several tracks to a single track. I did use the compressor as I had to record every instrument with its fx when tracking. I don't remember exactly how I used it but I think I had it wired in a lot of the time.
