DYNAMICS Expander
Channel 7: Percussion
For the percussion channel, we will cut the 125 Hz
region by –8.0 dB to reduce the weight of the low
range, making the sound a bit lighter. In the dynamics
section, we will use a compander to increase the per-
ceived loudness to compensate for the reduction in
the low range.
