Question

Hey guys! So i am VERY new to using Studio One version Five and im just wondering how i could possibly "control" or "suppress" drum mic bleed through. I havent had much luck in finding any useful videos. Any tips or programs that come with Studio One that i could possible use?

Thank you guys so much,

Chris

Answer 1

The built-in Gate effect is a noise gate.  Noise gates are usually the first choice for controlling mic bleed.  There are definitely many good tutorials on using noise gates on YouTube.  

Of course, if the bleed is bad enough that the primary sound captured by the mic is being masked by the signal bleeding into the mic, you may have to record new takes to get a cleaner primary signal.
