Hardware Compression Settings

Here is your video posted ages ago.

I still wonder to this day what your settings were on the compressor to make it sound so even?

Can you do this with a Boss Compression Sustainer CS-3? They don't make your model anymore.

How would you set the level, tone, attack, and sustain to make it even?

Thank you for your time.

Eric looks like he hasn't aged a day! :mrgreen:

I have a VS comp that's pretty easy to dial in, just mess with it until you get 'your' sound. MXR makes a few comps that get great reviews, it's not just the Dynacomp anymore.

Thank you for your kind response.

I wanted Eric's sound because no matter what the dynamic range was it didn't clip and it made the vocal sound very professional, even with budget gear.
