Managing synth volume in a band setting - SynthWizard - 12-31-2019 Managing synth volume in a band setting <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I come from a long bass playing background and have recently dipped into playing a synthesizer (Korg Minilogue) in a band setting. I find it quite difficult to control the volume of my synth sound over the other instruments, as the analogue filter sweeps tend to also have a massive effect on the volume (depending on the patch). I was wondering if I should be using a limiter pedal or other such solution to limit the volume hike caused by sweeping the filter?</p> <p>I'm playing mostly high leads or pads through a rather robust PA system (Minilogue --&gt; mixer --&gt; PA). We play primarily high dynamic and volume rock (think Foo Fighters, Dinosaur Jr, Jack White) with a guitarist, a bass player and a heavy-handed drummer.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Shankbon"> /u/Shankbon </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ei0i0u/managing_synth_volume_in_a_band_setting/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ei0i0u/managing_synth_volume_in_a_band_setting/">[comments]</a></span>
