#compression #compressor #vocalcompression
Get ready to start using your compressor plugins like a pro!
It can be hard to grasp how a compressor works. The effect can be subtle, but if you’re not sure how to properly compress a source, you can wind up making things sound even worse!
That’s why I’m taking some time today to share my top 5 vocal compression tips!
I really want to make sure you understand this, so if you still have questions after you watch the video, leave me a comment below! It might just get answered in a future video!
*** at 3:05 I unintentionally miss matched "Above" with "Below" when talking about the Treshold point and the Attack time, and vise versa with the Release time. I guess it was a long day 🤦
