Hello everybody,

Hope you all are doing well.

I am trying to find a way to get rid of the sibilance and plosives in my vocal. I've done a lot research and tried different things. I don't want to use EQ, rather I want to use the multi-band compressor. Does anyone has experience with "Comp - P4EQ" on PA700? I don't quite get how to set various parameters in it, the use manual is not very helpful in this case. Thank you very much for your help!

After reading the manual over and over, it seems to me that the effect "Limiter-P4EQ" is a better choice than "Comp-P4EQ". Anyone has experience with this limiter?

If you are having feedback issues, the best to stop that is to turn the internal speakers off and run external speakers. Even then, if the speakers are too loud, you will experience feedback.

You can also roll off the mid-highs (around 6kHz) and that should help a bit too.

The plosives you speak of (the t/b/p consonants) can be remedied by using a pop filter in front of the microphone.

If you are in a studio situation, then pop filters are the standard fix. I use them myself, with great success when recording vocals from my studio mics.

The Limiters/Compressors may not act fast enough to stop plosives but they can lessen them to an extent.

More information on the use of the mic/arranger would be helpful to make a better judgment call on how to lessen/eliminate the issues.

Grace,
Harry

Thanks, Harry.

I am using a Shure SM58. I do streaming worship for my small congregation now days in my bedroom. Not the best acoustic environment.
