Vocal Compression with Plugins

201 Audio Mixing, Waves

Description

Compressors are a great way to tame the dynamic range of a vocal. We'll learn what a compressor is and what all the different controls in a compressor are responsible for. Lee uses Waves Emo D5 to show this.

Key Points:
  • The ration of a compressor is just that, a ratio. If a compressor is set to a 3:1 ratio, that means for every 3dB of volume past the threshold, only 1dB will be allowed to pass.
  • The attack and release on a compressor determine how quickly the compressor will engage, and how quickly it will disengage compression.
