I believe that on the master you should have ratio not bigger than 2:1 I may be wrong though but I believe that 6:1 is a bit drastic... |

Yeah maybe your right that was ruffly thrown together but its just a place to start thats what i do i start there and work the knobs from that position i usually end up at 2 anyway on most tracks tho those presets are what i mainly use for rock tracks. |
