the classic 1176 fet compressor so I am going to Loop this preor section I'm going to use this input knob dial it in until I start seeing the needle moving I want to see about 5 to 7 DB of gain reduction on that needle I'm going to keep the attack to a pretty fast attack and I'm going to adjust the release to be a little bit slower I want it to grab those initial transients but then you know keep compressing for a little bit longer too I like the ratio of about 4:1 and I want it 100% wet sorry that was gross the last thing I'm going to do is adjust the output gain knob to make sure that the vocal isn't getting super loud or super quiet because I'm using this compressor I can check that by turning the compressor on and off to take off again then I don't want to hear your awesome if buttery smoothness is your thing check out the LA 2A styled compressor from analog obsessions the la2a is a legend in the world of vocal processing adding this tube style compressor after the previous
