Re: CD "Everybody's Dancing" by Geno, either observation or question

I'm mostly interested in compression to experiment so I don't have to scream over the band to sing and hear myself, and the limiter to keep from bleeding from my ears while wearing in ear monitors, if any feedback starts. Not sure if I'll keep the in ear monitors, so, compression is an option.

Re: CD "Everybody's Dancing" by Geno, either observation or question

ok
not sure it can really do either one
but it;s another time waster trying it out
oh sorry i forgot - -''education'' :)

i don;t think most acc players use either one live
if you get compression wrong it can
a. make feedback worse and
b. suck the life and dynamics out of the music
[[which is one of the attractions of accordion, dynamics]]

or you might get it right!
