Yeah, lot’s of power and quality, just no de-esser. I did a search similar to Drezzy’s and found this forum. I realize it hasn’t been updated in nearly a year, but in case you guys are still around, here goes. To anyone’s knowledge, does firmware v. 1.9 have a de-esser anywhere in its FX library? I realize this is kind of a newbie question, but this console is relatively new to me. I’m a sound guy (and occasional guitar player) at my church, and our worship leader’s ess’s are getting pretty ridiculous, to the point where we can’t even EQ it out. Someone in the church, who knows a little bit about the issue, gave us an old analog vocal producer, and de-essing is one of the functions it can perform. Need to know: “airickess”‘s solution of: “It sounds as though whatever signal you are sending to the buss compressor is also being sent directly to the mains output too. Make sure you aren’t sending the desired signal to both the mix output feeding the compressor and the mains output. Only the return signal from the external buss compressor should be sent to your mains output.” – will this work for an external de-esser as well? And if so, how do you keep the signals you are routing to the de-esser from going to the mains also? Is there a simple way to do this? Or am I out of luck until A&H is able to work a de-esser into its Qu firmware?
