s Compressor By using a compressor during mastering, you can not only improve the overall balance of the song, but sometimes also give the sound more punch and speed, or emphasize the groove. This may be somewhat difficult until you get the knack, but once you do, you will be able to make your mix "sound better" every time. The compressor settings for the demo song are nothing extreme, but here too, you can learn by trying out various settings as you did with the EQ, and noticing how the sound is affected. s Master compressor settings for the demo song Threshold Ratio Out Gain Attack Release Knee -35 dB 3:1 0.0 dB 0 ms 110 ms 2 Recording the song to the stereo track On the AW2816, you must first record the mixed song onto the stereo track, and then write that stereo track to the CD. Once you are satisfied with the master EQ and compressor settings, use the following procedure to record the song to the stereo track. 1 Press the [ST] key to enter STEREO track recording mode. (The key indicator will blink.) 2 Return to the beginning of the song, and start recording. (Simultaneously press the [REC] key and [PLAY] key.) 3 When the song ends, press the [STOP] key. Writing the song to a CD-R disc This procedure is explained in detail in the AW2816's "Owner's Manual," so please refer to the appropriate pages. Are you happy with your new CD? Tutorial 25
