Chris and Jody lay it on the line, the EQ and Compression line of when to use EQ before or after Compression. The straight dope about the how’s and why’s of EQ before Compression and EQ after compression. Also giving some real world examples of when we would use EQ and Compression plus in which order. There’s even an extra bit of double EQ and double compression, find out when and where. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.

Chris and Jody jump in with a deep dive with the Distressor from Empirical Labs. The super versatile compressor that was designed from the ground up to emulate a couple other super classic compressors. The end result is a compressor that became a classic in it’s own right. We delve into the history, the models, and breakdown the controls. Then we explain what it’s good for. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.
In this video, Chris walks you through how you might use a Fairchild 670 and 660 on drums. From the drum bus, to individual kit pieces and perhaps even on your Master Buss. How to choose an appropriate time constant and gain reduction to get the results you want.

In this video, Chris shows how he deals with compression on the master bus. Not to maximize loudness, but to add to the sound, and still leave plenty of headroom for the mastering stage.
