AA2 Week 11

I have to admit, this week i had very little idea what i was doing, but you've gotta start somewhere. Ive never done this sort of EQing or compression before, it feels totally different to just applying this to one instrument. I never realized how much a little ammount of work can change the whole song. Everything becomes so much more exaggerated, it really opens the whole thing wide open. Because i did this in Studio 5 there wasnt a very good effect pallete to play with, but the main ideas are there. i found mydelf EQing my EQ. I dont know if this is a very good idea, but it seemed to be working for me. In future i think that i will avoid this because, especially in the case of analog gear, it raises system noise. Compression was really difficult, i didnt know where to start. Or how to approach this. This is something i must bring up in calss.
