Compression & Mic Prosessing

Adobe Audition may not be the best tool for the job @ProperJB.

You’ll likely want some real time EQ for your microphone channel.

This is what I have running on my chain for my productions.

Audio-Technica AT4033aSM > dbx 286s > Soundcraft Signature 12 MTK

dbx 286s

The dbx 286s mic processor and preamp adds compression, noise gate and a little EQ enhancement to the bass and treble on my microphone.

Soundcraft Signature 12 MTK

There’s more dbx goodness on this mixing desk to ensure you don’t peak. The EQ is also great on most Soundcraft desks. Always look to make sure you get bass, mid, high and the bonus mid range frequency selector dial.

Would you like to see me walk through some EQ settings for live broadcast? You should suggest it as a live show idea :slight_smile:
