How does Al Schmitt set up his TLA-100A for vocals?
After selecting his choice for a microphone for the singer, he sends the output from his chosen preamplifier into the input of the TLA-100A. He sets the gain to around 3, attack and release at medium (center position) and the meter select to Reduction. He sets the Gain Reduction until the meter shows just a slight compression, 1-2dB max.
