[QUOTE="Ian Coughlin, post: 2500, member: 19"] The other day I lost a monitor on one of my SOS rig gigs. Upset about this and at myself for not having any processing/compression/limiting on this speaker channel I got to thinking. I then had a small epiphany and realized how I have only focused on my "outputs" (everything after the mixer, speaker alignment, eqs, compression/limiting, pretty much everything a Driverack can do to a speakers sound). DJ moment? :uhoh: Thinking further into this I realized I've (and every dj i can think of) been running my microphones straight into my mixers mic input! All this time following you guys and these boards you would think I would have picked up on this sooner! I have a small 4 space rack that accompanies my sos rig and would like to add a 1 space, 2 channel dynamic processor. I know/own DBX products and have been happy with the results which led me to their website. I was looking at the 1066, the mic on channel 1 and the monitor speaker on channel 2. I know this will work as intended for channel 2/the monitor speaker but not sure what to do with channel one/the mic. I was advised heavy compression, 3:1 ratio, fast attack and release, does this sound right? What processing (such as compression, attack, release) do you apply to mic channels? [/QUOTE]
