Fatso settings for mixing on the bus

doogie · 20th November 2005

what do the Fatso affectionados like to set it on for mixing?

pigpen · 20th November 2005

I couldn't really get it to work on the 2 Buss to my liking. It seemed to muddy things up a bit in the lows. However, I'd love to hear what others think (Jules?). It pretty much lives on my Drum sub though. I recently bought an API 2500 that lives on the 2 buss now and I love what it does. Don't get me wrong here though, I would not give up my Fatso for anything, I love it. Its warmth feature is worth the price of admission alone!

All that being said, a friend of mine works with Brendon O'Brien a good bit and apparently, Mr O'Brien slaps the Fatso on his 2 Buss....I will see if he can sneak a peek at the settings he uses (Gawd knows I am curious)
Hey Jules! Brendan for a guest????

thanks for the feed-back if O'Brian is useing it on the master bus it's gotta mean something ... are you mixing on a real console or summing?

No console...no summing....analog/itb mix.
(As far as Brendan goes...don't read too much into...he is gawd after all. He could probably put a RNC on the 2 buss and it woudl still sound good. )

Hey as a mater of fact....Mr Brian Lucey....any idea how Brendon is setting up his Fatso on hte 2 Buss?
