dcharrison · 8th July 2008, 10:15 PM

I,m thinking about building a sidecar for drums with 8 mic pres and 8 channels of compression and limiting. The Presonus ACP88 and the Klark Teknik 8 channel comps are appealing because (I believe) they allow linking multiple channels, not just stereo linking.
A.) Is there a way to do that with the Pico?
B.) Am I just being anal worrying about that?

I know I want a stereo comp on the overheads, and I suspect that I want the snare and kick isolated and individually controlled, but there is so much common signal on toms and OH, I figure I might like to have them marching in lock step.

Any thoughts?
