Re: [xl7] dynamics with XL7

2010-02-01 by Bob S.

The XL7 is a synthesizer, an instrument, so it's effects complement the synthesis of the sound.� The effects you speak of are recording effects.� Check your audio recording setup for these......if you have a software based DAW, they are in the VST/Dxi effects......if you have a digital hardware recorder, they are part of the recording effects section of the recorder.....if you have something else or are not recording, use the inserts of your mixing board.� Lastly, the inserts of the XL-7 are helpful if you have no other way to send the audio to effects, but in most situations, if the XL-7 is your only synth, you can put an outboard effects processor in-line with the XL-7 outputs to get dynamics processing.� There are many digital solutions,make sure they do have dynamics processing because only about a quarter do.� I have an analog solution, a quad compressor limiter and a quad noise gate that are outboard that I can patch in when I need it.....

Subject: [xl7] dynamics with XL7

As much ai I love my XL7 I still miss proper dynamics section from the FX.
Compressor/limiter, gate, expander?
Is there a flexible and more or less comprehensive solution?
Only the 2 sub-outs? That's way less... :(

Thanks,
