Bulls Hit said:I generally EQ & compress the doubled snare track, usually with the 1176.
Sometime I double the drum submix and compress with LA2A for additional volume
I sent you a PM email on this question...just repeating it for any one else to reply... I am looking at the 2-1176 and the 2-LA2 compressors and want to make a purchase soon. I have read that the LA2A is more application specific and that you wouldn't want to use it on too many tracks because it could ruin (or exremely color) your mix way too much. Is this true? Would the new 2-LA2 solve this problem because it has a "fast" attack switch?
My preamps are API 512c's...not sure if that would interact much better with one than the other, etc.
Thanks!
