5/30/2023 0 Comments Best 1176 clone![]() ![]() On the best of low budget compressors, I'm really liking my recently acquired Rane DC24. If each side of the stereo signal gets controlled independently, only by it's own signal level, this can result in unwanted and distracting 'panning' type effects when one side gets more compressed than the other, and any mono elements common to both sides appear to 'move' away from the side that is being more heavily compressed.įor example, if the snare is panned a bit more to the left, this would cause more compression on the left side on every snare hit, which will make the vocals, bass, anything that is panned center, suddenly 'jump' toward the right side on every snare hit, because those signals are suddenly getting quieter on the left, but not on the right. ![]() ![]() In a stereo compressor, the compression applied to both channels gets controlled by a mono summed version of the signal being applied to a pair of VCAs (one for L, one for R) so that both sides of the stereo signal receive matching compression control signals and both sides of the signal respond together. Keep in mind that two mono compressors do not work the same as one dedicated stereo compressor. I plan to get another one for the stereo! My Mooer Yellow Compressor is fantastic on synths and on guitars.
