MDX1600 Dynamics processor setup

[YO3IBW]

Hello!
The new addition to my shack is a Behringer Autocom-Pro-XL MDX1600 Dynamics processor. This new toy is used on the first channel like a noise-gate and the second channel as a dynamics compressor. In the between I connected the DSP1124p parametric equalizer.
The question is, anybody of you have any idea or experience with this MDX1600? Do you know some optimal settings for him?

Thanks for the answer!

Howdy Dan,
Congrats on your new addition!!!
Unfortunately, we haven't any experience with that rascal.
Any one else out there have one of these beauties??

Thanks! Well, I want to mention that MDX1600 is the same like MDX2600 but without the adjustable DE-ESSER function and Tube emulation.

Greetings.Try this and see if it works for you.Ratio:5.1.Attack:.1
msec,Release:.05 sec.While saying the letter s(sssssss),adjust the
threshold to obtain about -15 db of gain reduction showing on the meter.Adjust output gain for proper
ALC on the radio.Knee:out(light off).Contour:in(light on).Look on the back where the XLR cables go and you will notice a button between the input and output.The button should be in the out position.Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help! I'll try it soon... now I've got some problems with my voice. The winter cold air cause me some problems...
