USAGE GUIDE
This section should start out with something like, "Congratulations on purchasing our most
popular Flame Thrower! Be careful lighting cigarettes with it or using it near your face... or
in the house."
Our Talkback Limiter is one of the most extreme compressor/limiters available. It is
incredibly punchy and is capable of adding huge amounts of distortion and gain to a signal.
In some cases, like getting classic gated reverb type drum sounds, or obviously crushed
guitar and bass sounds, the total lack of subtlety of this little monster is a gift. However, our
Talkback Limiter can do a lot more than simply torch tracks, Flame throwers are fun (take
our word for it) but a match is usually more useful.
For extreme settings, most of the time what you'll do is click this thing on and
fl
ip the LINE/
MIC switch to MIC and you're done. You'll quickly
fi
nd out that the THRESHOLD control
does almost nothing because the signal is just about completely over threshold and the
GAIN REDUCTION METER is basically pinned to the right and doesn't move from there until
you press stop on your DAW's transport. DISTORTION TRIM will add some grit and round
o
ff
the transients.
Use the LOW PASS FILTER to roll o
ff
high end "chi
ff
" that can hash up the upper frequencies
of your recording and cause your ears to bleed.
We use the Talkback Limiter for a lot more than just blowing things up, however, and the
key to getting great sounds out of it in a more nuanced fashion is to get friendly with the
DRY/WET BLEND control. The Talkback Limiter has a super high ratio, and a
fi
xed attack
and release, and you will ALWAYS hear it.
To minimize the TBL's sonic footprint, and its sonic footprint is basically a huge steel toed
army boot, back o
ff
the WET/DRY. A lot. A good way to approach this is to start with DRY/
WET full up,
fl
ip between LINE and MIC to see which you like better, get the overtones and
distortion you want using the Other Side DISTORTION TRIM and TRANSISTOR BIAS, and
then back down on the DRY/WET until the track sits where you want in the mix. You'll
fi
nd
that often you have the DRY/WET barely cracked - like a dot or two above the word "DRY."
Our Talkback Limiter can add transient punch to almost anything you run through it, so it
works great for bringing out bass parts and articulating guitar parts that aren't well de
fi
ned
in the mix.
