Hey Steffen
Thanks so much for the quick reply, and somewhat relieved to know I wasn’t doing anything dumb anyway! 🙂
You’re right of course about using my ears. I’ve found it’s easy to overdo these things especially in a busy sound check with limited time, and so I’ll use all the aids I can to make sure that I’m not overcompressing (which I’ve found can lead to other problems esp with monitoring). Sounds like the QU PAD app is a little better – I am using this too, so will check out the graphical display there and see if that’s more helpful than the on-board display. I’m in the band too, so just a limited window to get everything set and then it’s on with the show!
Thanks again – much appreciated, Bill Hester
