Knobbers: what’s your cable source?

If you’re like me, your setup calls for a massive amount of audio and control voltage cables. The modules have just got to have a conversation with each other! And if you’re gonna be a slut about it, you’ll only get the flyest cables you can find. Which brings me to my question.

fastest compressor/limiter?

all the sidechaining threads that seem to have popped up lately have gotten me thinking, which analog comp in your opinion maintains the best quality when your A/R is at extremely quick settings? in that same vein i also wanted to ask the community, what are the different ways you like to process signals to compensate for the envelopes not snapping to attention fast enough? gain automation comes to mind, you could also layer your sounds in a step-sequence style chronologically (or resample them in that same manner, i suppose), etc etc..

Live Vocal Harmonies (Cheaper Alternatives)

So I’ve been performing a 1 man electro-synth show for quite some time, and I’ve been wanting to include harmonies on the fly.

Feeling the Guitar

Okay, so I know this question is hated on this forum. The “How do i get this sound” question, especially with guitars, but i think this question involves alot more discusion then that! The tone I’m looking at is the guitar tone on Ronnie Day’s Outside (it appears on his album “The Album” a couple times but this is just the best example.) To my ear the guitars are really thin and panned hard left and right, but for some reason the fill out so much of the mix, I’m convinced that wasnt done with synths or keyboards too much. The guitar is felt! Do you think it’s a layering technique or is there some kind of frequency push?
