Local 47 · 18th May 2007

Hello Tchad,
I'm not trying to figure out what comps you use where and on what. Rather I'd love to know when you use additive compression, and why?
I suppose vocals get regular in-line compression (channel insert). What about the rest: do you use compression, like with the SA, also in an additive way?
Thx.
Doug
