PSP Plugins - MicroWarmer vs OldTimer

[eustressor]

Can anyone help me better understand the distinguishing features between these two plug-ins? They seem quite similar to me. Also, any particular scenarios where either are particularly effective (guitar, drums, buss or mastering, etc.)?

Any feedback appreciated. Thanks!

Both are great on just about anything. The OldTimer is an easy to use compressor that I love to use on electric bass, acoustic guitar, and piano. Nice color and an even smoothness. The MicroWarmer is its own beast; I love it on drums, edgy vocals, and it sends electric guitars into the stratosphere. It's also limiter of sorts. They really are very different from each other.

Thank you @supanorton, all I knew was both were good for warming up and fattening sound. I thought they were both compressors when I bought them, but now it seems MicroWarmer is more of a saturator, perhaps? Very much appreciate the usage tips as well
