Sneap Guitar Multiband settings

[dmmi]

I saw on this forum a while ago, someone posted some guiitar specific multiband compression (I think) settings to eliminate the low mid gunk of a guitar track.....granted the setting were just a starting point, they did work for me, but I've lost the project I had them on (ugg...should have made template.

But did some searching and can't find it on the forum...can someone post a link please....

Thx,
Cheers!

it really is a cure-all for killing cab flub without taking away from the tone.

Oh man this is golden! I hadn't thought about this before but it really cleaned up my guitar part. Used the exact same setting but with 2db less "range" than Andy. Awesome!

Google it man. Don't be afraid. It's easy.
Andy + Sneap + C4 and it's in the first image

Hey guys, how hot are you going into the c4/how are you adjusting the threshold? Basically how many dB are you guys pulling?

Dude, you should REALLY be able to tell that all by yourself, it depens TOTALLY how much lows you have on the gtr. listen to teh whale mix and master the universe like he-man

I'm setting in a manner that works, I suggest you do the same.

Threshold settings are worthless man, it's going to be different every single time.

That's a good starting point, just keep in mind that it's for a particular setup: i.e., gtr>amp>cab>mic>mic placement>preamp. It may not work so well for your setup. I use the ReaXcomp on Reaper, and solo the low band while sweeping the range. You can tell pretty easily where the 'woof' is and kill it without ruining your tone.


PS: FF666, luv that Rock Master! I've got one feeding a Chameleon and a MESA 2:90. A highly underrated pre.

I just discovered the other day, after reading the manual , that ReaComp has all the functionality you need for doing this kind of compression.
Dialing the lowpass down to where you need it does the job, it's even got a preview filter box.

Unless there's a setting hiding somewhere that I haven't found, ReaComp cannot do this by itself. Using the high/low-pass sliders toward the bottom affect what range it *listens* to, but it will still compress the entire signal when it clamps down.

 

[Damage, Inc.]

Not ReaComp, ReaXComp. That's the multiband one.

Oh, I know. The post above mine was pretty specific though.
