Hi,
I am confused about single output things such as mic's and the RNC comp I was about to buy - isn't it better to have their signal split into two by a compressor that has left and right outs? Why then, does such a compressor only have one out per channel? bear with me, thanks J -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

QUOTE I take it there is no particular advantage to doing this (as that is not 'proper' stereo) and I may as well have been going through just the one of the channels on the Behringer. That is correct. QUOTE I would rather go the software route - can you recommend a standalone compressor that's good for vocals/guitar? Wouldn't you rather be using the compressor as a plug-in in your recording software? Some of my favourite software compressors include the basic allrounder Waves Renaissance (not forgetting Waves C1) + the more lavish Focusrite d3 and Drawmer Dynamics. There's also the less expensive new Sonalksis dynamic processors, but I haven't had time to check them out yet. I believe there are demo versions of most of the software I mentioned available, just check them out yourself and pick what's best suited for you. QUOTE I really appreciate this, it's been a hole in my knowledge that has been bugging me for a while. Glad to be able to help. |
