3. The Multipressor is a little ham-fisted IMHO and a more subtle 3rd party compressor, like the Sonaksis, might work better.

You can PM me for follow up as I am in L.A. also.

interesting..


the only things I have been bussing for effects is the reverbs for the drums and mics and guitars.. and Im using a small delay to widen the bass solo and chorus vocals..



all the other effects I feel should be used in the tracks themselves. but I totaly understand how it could narrow things for me..


Im going to try another compressor for the final output to see if it changes things..
