[QUOTE="Jay Barracato, post: 371, member: 24"] I would like to clean up the signal that a band using the Shure P4T IEM's hears. The basic problem is the lack of dynamic range in the IEM's cannot match the dynamic range of the band on stage. In this case, the entire band hears the same stereo signal and uses it to control their dynamics at their microphones. The unit has a 4 led input meter. According to the manual you should set the gain into the unit so the yellow is mostly illuminated but occasional flashes of red are ok. I am not sure if something is wrong with this particular unit but any red causes first distortion then the entire signal cutting out. The built in limiters are supposed to be greater than 10:1 reduction,but I do not see anywhere in the manual that says you can change their parameter. I could use a compressor to smooth out the signal range, but then I am afraid the band will not hear what they need to control their own dynamics. Would it be reasonable to use a limiter on the input just to knock down the loudest moments? What other problems might I not be seeing? [/QUOTE]
