Sure, but is it really necessary? How often do you mix in the dry signal when using a compressor? I know that one often does when compressing for instance vocals, but isn't it about as simple to set up the compressor as an fx send then?

Guess i use it as an effect more than a dynamics tool, energyXT has a wet/dry value on insert effects but in any other host id have to use a send fx which i tend not todo for just 1 track as it clutters the mixer.

Ok, well, I'll try it adding one and see if I find it useful

I do all the time and I know lots of producers that does it as well. My favourite comp. OtiumFX Beatcompadre has this fantastic option

Ok. It's a no-brainer to add it ofcourse. Only drawback is that it will "clutter" the GUI

Sorry! Forgot!
Give me a mo....

Should the wet/dry be before or after the soft clip?

Holophonic · Post by **Holophonic** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 2:33 pm

i reckon after so it is a truely dry signal.

cool mate thanks!

Here!

Wet/Dry knob added!
Dry signal is delayed when ahead-knob is adjusted, so wet and dry stay in phase.
