*DSP Notes:
Doug Oade performed DSP on the transferred wav files using Waves REQ, RCL and C4 plug ins. IDR used for 32 > 16bit conversions of DAW files.
Doug's DSP comments:
?The DSP I did was to accomplish three goals, one is to reduce the dynamic range, without making it sound compressed (very low ratio of 1.25 to 1), the second, to apply EQ in order to partially compensate for the LF rolloff of the mics used and finally, I used the C4 processor to reduce PA or source hiss from space that was brought up in level by the use of RCL.?
