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? |
I have owned/used the ACP-88 ( actually 3 of them..
.), haven't heard the KT. The ACP-88s are ok, has some good features. Probably works better for a "live" enviorment (IMHO).. The onboard fan is sorta anoying for the control room tho. I'm planning to go the Pico 500 side-car route myself. The thing I like about the Pico, I can leave it in or out of the chain without detrimental side effects just hitting by-pass!...My other comps does something to the signal, even in by-pass...
..Good luck with your side car..
