Gmul Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I am trying to use the compressor in my px5 to make a downloaded grand piano timbre sit nicely in a live band mix but still cut through when necessary. I was trying it tonight and some how the piano patch is now distorting and has lost all dynamics. Any advice regarding ratios, threshold etc?. I have found that the output of the keyboard runs quite "hot" and like to operate the volume control between 12 and 3 o clock ( if Ya get what i mean ). Thanks in advance.

Brad Saucier Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Reset the compressor to defaults by pressing both yes and no buttons at once for each parameter. Distortion is likely caused by pushing the compressor output level to high. Instead of using compressor, I would edit the piano tone reducing the amp velocity sense a good bit. This will reduce the volume dynamics yet still give you an expressive piano tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
