Jan 24, 2017 | 60,850 Views
Watch these basic tips on how to get acoustic, electric and bass guitars to sit together in your mix using the Renaissance Axx guitar compressor plugin.
Audio engineer Chris Lawson will help you get started with the plugin, with tips on how to:
- Use the plugin’s 3 simple controls: Threshold, Attack, Output Gain
- Even out the overall dynamic of each guitar
- Apply auto makeup gain
- Give several guitars playing together a more cohesive feel by placing Renaissance Axx on a guitar buss group
- Get bass notes to sound more even and level
- Introduce subtle change to your lead guitar sound by placing the compressor before or after a virtual amp
