Hi Guys,

I am using the Boss Br 1600 to record, I will be recording drums using the Alesis sr16 drum machine. I would like advise on how to set up the compression on the drum machine, Guitar, Vocals, and Bass.

Thanks

Jerry
 
Search the board.

I could tell you what I know about compression but I don't think anyone desrves such a crappy start. :D

You'd be better off looking around and taking a look at what's already been written about compression.

Don't expect much in the way of suggestions for actual settings (although you may find a few).

Compression is one of those things for which there's really no set formula. Like most things in recording it's playing, tinkering, trial and error and training your ears.

No quick fix I'm afraid.

Good luck
 
The best advice is not to use someone else's presets or values. You have to tweak teh knobs and get the right sound and then make your own presets if you like them.
 
Sadly, this is true. Damn other people and their presets not making my recordings sound good!
 
Thanks

Thanks Guys, And thanks for the link Kevin

Cheers
