ON THE FINAL MIX
The JOEMEEK C2 is very suitable as a final mix compressor. Assemble the sounds
and do several run throughs with the compressor in circuit but with the compression
switched OUT. This allows you to get the overall levels right and avoids momentary
overloads which could spoil the mix. Once the sound of the mix is as good as you can
get, switch in the compression and experiment with depths and attack/release times. It's
unlikely that you will need extremes of compression at this stage;
however, Joe Meek (the man himself) used to put up to 10dB of extra compression on
at this stage!
GENERALLY, because the compressor is so extremely quiet and free of any nasty
distortions, its quite OK to use it both on individual tracks, and on the mix, so I tend to
use it individually on almost everything just to gain some individual warmth, then use it
again on sub groups in the mix; so it pays to have more than one! TF
