De-essing: (Requires external EQ) Plug a TRS insert cable into the side
chain jack on the back of the MPC-100A. Plug the send (tip) of the insert
cable to the input of the EQ, and the return (ring) of the cable to the EQ
output. Boost the frequencies on the EQ that you want to compress (de-ess).
Ducking: Send the output of the “lead” program material into the side chain
input after inserting the MPC-100A on the “background” program material.
Example: Send the output of the lead guitar mic into the side chain, with the
MPC-100A inserted on the rhythm guitar track. As the lead guitar player
plays, the rhythm guitar will decrease in amplitude. This is perfect for
broadcast use when the DJ needs to speak over music, live use when the lead
singer needs to be heard over the lead guitar, or film sound when an actor’s
voice has to overcome a noisy background tone.
