Fattening Kick Drums and Compressing Other Drums
Weak, flabby kick drums often have too much boom, and not enough slap.To tighten them up,
start with the MC6 adjusted for a medium to high RATIO slider position, adjust the
THRESHOLD control so that the GAIN REDUCTION meter shows 15 dB of gain reduction,
then increase the RATIO if necessary. In OverEasy mode, the MC6 takes slightly longer to react
Use the dbx MC6
Mini-Comp™
Compressor when
you record to
maximize signal to
noise ratio by
inserting the MC6
on the main/tape
outputs before the signal goes to your multi-
track recorder.The MC6’s True RMS Power-
Summing™ will track your stereo image
perfectly every time.
Use the dbx MC6 Mini-
Comp™ Compressor in your
live sound rig by putting it
before your other signal
processors. Or put it in line
before you send to your mixer
or recorder. Get that great
dbx compression that no
other guitar processor or
recorder has!

: With mono signals like your guitar, use the MC6
as a Y-cable. Both outputs send the same signal when the
mono input is used as the only input. This means you can
send signal to a recorder AND to an amp/speaker system
independent of each other.
