Focusrite Liquid Mix Opinions?

[James R. Coplin]

I know this is a bunch of gear questions back to back but I'm actually back
in studio again, after and extremely long break and I'm trying to get the
beast dialed in that last little bit.  The only compression I currently have
are the plugins built into Cubase.  I generally don't use them or borrow a
nice unit from a friend when I need the real thing.  Lately though, I've
been wondering if I shouldn't be bolstering my EQ and compression options.
What are folks' opinions on the Liquid Mix? Alternatives and options?  That
is, besides spending multiple $1,000s of dollars on the real stuff.
