Re: Compressors 'n' shit -

2002-05-17 by mikexl7

I just installed a behringer tube composer and a behringer ultra 
curve pro and the combo is super sweet.  I have the ultra curve side 
chained through the tube composer so i can controll what frequencies 
are being compressed.  The Gate and limiter on the tube composer 
still work on the hole signal but only what i want gets compressed.  
The sweet thing about it is i can trigger the eq settings via midi 
so it is always right for the song i am working on in a live setting.

It is not the cheap way to go but it sounds very good.

Peace 

Mike G.
