| Post subject: | Compressor/Limiter |
Ok, so I'm looking to add some compression/limiting to my setup and I'd like some recommendations. I'm basically looking for something with a fairly high density - preferably 4 channels per 1U of space but I'm open to hear what anyone would recommend. The 3 units I'm looking at are: Samson S-Com4 - compressor/limiter/gate http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SCom4/ $150 dbx 1046 - compressor/limiter http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/1046/ $500 Presonus ACP-88 - compressor/limiter/gate http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/ACP88/ $900 (would likely look for this used on eBay) My current rig: Mackie Onyx 1620 Mixer Peavey Twin DeltaFX RSQ-333 Cavs 203G Behringer DEQ2496 I have more gear in the rack but this is the core. The Behringer is on the final output for feedback supression, compression, and EQ'ing. I'm not running a multi-amped system so a crossover isn't necessary (I'm using a B-52 Matrix 1000 for most of my karaoke gigs). Any recommendations would be appreciated... On a side note, I'm about to start recording a few local bands with my karaoke rig and the compressor would be used for that as well. |

The dbx 1046, it's a little more, but will do the best job - especially for the bands, plus it has a great brick wall limiter in it - mic'ing a kick drum or bass guitar. This unit is based on their world renowned 160 series. WELL worth the price. |
