[QUOTE="Chuck Fry, post: 48122, member: 1331"] Re: Compressor novice... need starting point for rock vocals I did play with the 166XL a little bit at yesterday's rehearsal. I had some other issues to take care of... being the bass player and a vocalist myself... and phantom power problems with the board didn't help. I had the compressor inserted on the two most problematic vocalists' channels. I tried to use a light touch. I went with OverEasy, fast attack, release at 12 o'clock, 3:1 ratio, threshold right around 0 db. I didn't see a lot of gain reduction when I was watching. The female lead said she thought she sounded better - and I didn't tell her what I was doing. The harmonica player arrived late, and I had no time at all to dial him in. Thanks again for all the suggestions and discussions. I can see I have a lot to learn. [/QUOTE]
