    Thank you for sharing this. I’d love to see a video on a creation or reworking compression on a track. Showing how, why in detail and in what order to use the compression the full price so that we can apply that in our productions. Knowing how much threshold etc and what this does will massively help a lot of people.

    11:55 the threshold does not determine the amount of compression, that's the job of the ratio. the threshold determines from when on the compressor starts to react.

    Great video. May I ask "why" in the side chain would you want to to have lows or highs trigger the compressor in the internal side chain? You showed the eq and explained it eloquently but I don't know why you'd want this. Thanks Sam. Also, is there any way this can sound like a Fairchild? (Not into rock music). Thanks so much. J.

    Thanks for the tutorial.
    I don't understand one thing, though:
    Why are the stereo link options "hidden" under the side chain menu?
    I'd assume the stereo link options are always relevant, whether you're sidechaining or not.

    • @samsmyers
      @samsmyers  2 роки тому +1

      Many compressors don't have the option to "unlink" the left and right channel. They are linked by default. So maybe bc it's like an "advanced" feature? Idk really...

  • @BuenoLaidley
    @BuenoLaidley 3 роки тому +3

    How does the Pro C2 compare to analog emulation plugins (such as the 1176, LA2A, SSL Bus Comp, or Fairchild 670)? Do those other types of compressors do something that the Pro C2 can't (other than adding the analog color of that compressor)?
    I have some emulations from Native Instruments (which are the 1176, LA2A, SSL Bus Comp, DBX 160, and Manley Vari Mu), but at the moment I can't hear a difference. Maybe that's because I haven't been mixing for very long (a couple of months now). But I fully understand and can hear what the compression is doing to the audio.

    • @samsmyers
      @samsmyers  3 роки тому +4

      those plugins do just that, emulate hardware compressors, taking into account how the hardware versions apply color to the sound and how they compress. The Pro-C2 is a modern style compressor, that has "style" options which could get you similar sounds to those hardware versions but also has more functions you wouldn't get from the hardware compressors (like all of the mid/side sidechaining and filtering options)

    for some reason when i tried to do the "isolate the kick part" in the side chain, the filter didnt seem to work, any idea why?

    • @samsmyers
      @samsmyers  3 роки тому +1

      hmm idk , you have to keep the sidechain menu open otherwise if you close it, then you will turn off the sidechain. You also need to make sure you selected external and not internal as the sidechain.

    • @roeeamir7020
      @roeeamir7020 3 роки тому +1

    I don't what is happening in my case, but to me this plugin is just g%rbage - it turns my audio into a mess and creates SPIKES out of nowhere. So instead of compressing the way i set it, it makes random parts louder than the original signal, which makes no sense at all.

    hi, Im a edm producer.
    It is always gona be my question while looking for a good digital compressor plugin. Is the compressor precise or fast enough for like a side chain purpose, any pumping affect purpose......?

    • @samsmyers
      @samsmyers  3 роки тому +1

      Yes, this works great for sidechaining. For other uses, I like to use the VC-76 by Native Instruments, but not for sidechaining.

    That's very helpful. Thx for sharing. I only didn't understand "totally" the sidechain part. It could have been told more widely. Interestingly, I understood better the external than the internal one. Ahahaha. But probably I'll figure out w practicing, at least I have an idea what it can be. Also in the stereo link section I didn't see any difference on the levels, so what was I supposed to give attention?
