The lead vocalist on this channel has a strong and rich
low-mid range, but in order to give the sound more

the lead vocal to cut the noise and apply compression
to emphasize the vocal strength and create a “hi-fi”
feeling.
EQ (ATT –14dB)
Dynamics settings (Compander Soft)
When adjusting the EQ or dynamics, you should also
adjust the fader level as appropriate. Since the level is
also affected when you adjust EQ or dynamics, you
will find it necessary to adjust it as well.
