I'm still using a DDP as my main compressor/limiter. I've had this thing for about 5 years now and have not had any problems. And I know there's others that'll make it look as if you're using this thing like a Alesis 3630. What I'm wondering is, will I need to upgrade to a better compressor or have an additional compressor added? My other's are software based.

HI friends! What are your opinions and choices nowadays? Is there anyone stil using 1630's? theya re a pain in the ass about drop-outs and archiving, however top pro guys see benefits.
wanna see all opinions
Thanks again

I'm looking for PC software titles that produce DDP/CRM files as output.

Could anyone tell me a good starting point for settigs for hard rock style vocals. I'm using a
Mackie board / RODE NTK / BBE / and a dbx DDP compressor. Looking for specific
settings for
ratio,
threshhold,
attack, r
elease,
knee.
Thanks a lot, Carl

I'm trying to stay all-digital here. So, utilizing the S/PDIF I/O on the DDP and the MOTU 2408, how do I route such a thing?
I'm wanting to use the DDP as a 2-mix compressor.

any thoughts?

thanks,
Michael
