3-band compression on grouped sources
If you have grouped several sources and want to do a “global” compression on this section, the 3-band mode can be very
effective. It will give you more transparency in your overall mix as you can apply independent compression to each of the
three frequency bands.
Full-band compression on vocals
You probably know that “in-your-face” airy kind of vocal that you hear on some tracks? The way to get that effect is by
using a full-band compressor on your vocal track, slowing the attack time, and speeding up the release time. It’s pretty
simple when you know how to do it.
Full-band compression on Guitar
It’s amazing how some tonal instruments can get a very percussive quality to them when the right type of effect is applied.
Using a full-band compressor on a rhythm guitar will give you a sound that is sharp, sweaty, funky and really emphasizes
the rhythmic and percussive qualities of your track.
Limiter
The Limiter is used to prevent overloads occurring at extreme and occasional peaks in the source material, - peaks that may
not be caught and attenuated sufficiently in the Compressor. As the Limiter can be used to limit the extreme, the
Compressor can be used to apply a much more “musical” and gentle compression.
EQ Section
The Fabrik C Live EQ section is a 4-band parametric EQ that gives you full control of high- and low-pass filters. Four filter
types are available offering Notch, Parametric, Shelving and Cut. If you are looking for a razor sharp filter, use the Notch
filter which has a range as low as 0.01 of an octave. For a more gentle approach go for the shelving filter that sports a
variable slope with a range from 3 dB/oct over 6 and 9 to 12 dB/oct. The Cut filter can be switched between a flat
amplitude maximum of 12 dB to an octave, and a flat group delay type. For a natural and “well behaved” bandwidth, apply
the parametric EQ.
De-Esser
A De-Esser is a compressor type used to reduce only specific sibilant frequencies. Typically the “s” sounds can be far too
dominant on a vocal track and the track would therefore often benefit from being processed by a De-Esser.
Headroom
To avoid internal clipping and to secure ease of use, all processing is done in the 48 bit domain, and is not truncated to 24
bit before the output of the Limiter.
