Expander Gate/Dynamics III vs Drawmer Dynamics
Hi I was wondering if the Digidesign Expander Gate/Dynamics III is as good as the Drawmer Dynamics plugin.
Any comments about either would be great. thanks in advance Dave |

My experience with dynamics III is not great. it sounds fine if you don't over use it, or if the sound you are processing is very clean. However if there is a little distortion or crunchiness in the track (as there often is in 'sync' sound in post work), the Dynamics III adds horrible harmonic distortion, and is almost un-usable. I don't know the Drawmer, but the focusrite (that is also bundled) is very good by comparison.

I really like the Oxford Dynamics for gating. It has all of the features you could want in a gate plus a built in lookahead so the gate isn't shaving transients.

the distortion is terrible and unsuable on dialogue or VO. i stopped using it -- except on my producer phone patch. EQ III is certainly an improvement. |

Have you people tried the free/cheap compressor made by Steven Massey? It's not tweakable enough for all applications, but works nicely where a simple compressor is suitable.
