Re: Impirical Labs Distressor as tape / valve simulator on drums, tips?
I don't usually compress drums to "tape" (just a personal preference). Unless you're certain of the compression you want to use, try the 1:1 ratio and Dist 2 or 3. Then just drive 'em until they just tickle the red clip light. I've also found that using an old Neve or Calrec mic pre adds some natural compression and smoothness.
