[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 100475, member: 1285"] Re: Compressor Question In a situation where channel compression is needed and there is a potential gbf issue, I prefer to set the threshold high enough that no makeup gain is needed, and in effect just soft-limit the signal. This tends to even out level differences between signals, and further comp can then be done in a subgroup. By limiting what goes into the monitors, feedback can sometimes be kept in check as well, so the compression can almost work to your advantage. But the threshold has to be at around or above nominal level so that no extra gain is introduced in the monitor path. "Many compressors are better than few compressors" ;)~;-)~:wink: [/QUOTE]
