The video to is show the top 3 compression mistakes when you are trying to make music, so that you can avoid them. Although, compression is great for songs it can also mess up the entire song if done wrong. The first mistake is using too fast on an attack time, which means the compressors is telling the audio to go through to fast. The second mistake is having too low of a threshold which means the volume is not getting compressed high enough. The final mistake is trusting the preset on the threshold, which means instead of trying to change things just leave the settings the way they are.
Key Takeaways:
- Using too fast of an attack time can cause compression mistakes.
- Using too low of a threshold can cause compression mistakes.
- Trusting preset threshold and gain settings can cause compression mistakes.
