Sorry for being dense...Still learning. I've read a bunch of the wiki stuff but, unless I missed it, I don't remember much about makeup.
I've been doing a lot of messing with COMP block on my Fender clean preset. The block is at the start of the chain and set to STUDIO. If I have 'makeup' activated and the threshold set to where I'm actually seeing the gain dB rolling off when playing, there is a buzzing happening. It goes away if I disconnect the guitar or lower the threshold but gate adjustments are not having any effect.
is the makeup activated or deactivate in "normal" studio compressor use? I'm trying to get more sustain so the assumption I'm making is that I need to find a threshold where the dB meter is showing some attenuation. Otherwise, the block isn't doing anything, right?
Just looking to be pointed in the right direction.
Thanx!
