Cliff, beta tester or someone that may know:
I was just curious, how come we can't assign a control pedal to the level of a compressor? I seem to preserve my tone while lowering this knob over any other gain control. As weird as that may sound. I'll explain in case I've lost you.
There are sounds where I like to use my expression pedal to lower gain. When I do this using the methods we currently have available for expression control, my tone alters in a way that is not just less/more gain. The tone characteristics change. I know the answer there "they're supposed to Danny!" However, I feel the timbre changes just a bit too much to my ears compared to the way I will explain below.
When I do this just dialing out the compression level manually, the tone does not alter and all that happens is less/more gain like I want to happen. The tone characteristics don't change. If they do, they are the least noticeable this way and my ears are not picking them up.
So I was just curios as to why we don't have "level" assignment options for our compressors? And...is there a possibility to have control over the level via expression pedal in the future? We have control over just about every other level of our effects.....I almost thought this was an over-sight. If not, I'm just curious as to why only our compression "level" knobs are not assignable if you can tell me? Thanks in advance.
