Regular recording engineers may sympathise with microphone technique but most paying customers rarely want the long story, i'd like to share a tip using command 'C' command 'V' for the automation of it in DAW's

it works

in the 90's Jo Wileys Hi Hat was a running joke as to the over dialled in compression used by the BBC in maintaining clear level over show segments when interviewers or guests had slight variations in natural volume

Natalie Imbruglia's Torn single is a good example of the team behind it saying "No I like the sound of her intake of air loud"

Van Morrisons Have I Told You lately is a good example of the team behind Van saying " No I don't want to hear Van's intake of air"



The automation of a click above was created on the left hand side 1st using select , downward pull on grabber , then highlighted using cursor copy and pasted onto the middle and finally to the right, for repetitive manoeuvres where a problem reoccurs or such like I find this really useful to only repeat the final copy and paste move instead of the downward pull grabber manoeuvre each and every time.
