So, I would go to the mixing forum, but no one there seems to know about reel to reels there.....So I'm going to ask it here.
So I've got a dbx 266 compressor, and an old teac EQ. Both are stereo.
1.When's the best time to use compression and EQ?
2.How am I supposed to use EQ and comp. on an 8 track when both units are stereo? Do I need to get an eq and compressor that has 8 channels?! I don't know.....
3. What is compression generally used on besides vox and drums? What about piano and accoustic guitar, and electric? Conga drums?
Thanks!
