Re: Yamaha M.CompHi Kristian,I use the PM5D, M7CL, and LS9, and the Midas Venice (least favorite of the 4 and the one I get stuck with most often). It all depends on the show. The makeup gain doesn't change dynamically so I think I can deal with it. As I understand it, the comp assumes you will need x amount of makeup gain based on a combination of your gain and threshold settings. If you turn the threshold to a lower number the gain will go up. During a live mix, this is dangerous as many have stated. Sometimes we want to compress without the makeup gain at least in the short term. If setting it all up in advance, it should be OK, right? The idea of look ahead compression is exciting. I wish the expander in M. Dynamics had this feature too.What is SLOPE (never mind - I slope is the slope of the crossover filters) and CEILING for? I can't imagine why this is not all explained in a manual somewhere, but google can't find it.
