What Is The Difference Between Wet/Dry, Mix Knobs, And Parallel Processing? Explained Simply.

[@Nogin1972]

I was hoping you would explain how to use parallel compression with compressors without a Wet\Dry mix control knob, like the Avalon 747

I'll add this to the list of content to create! Thanks for the question and apologies that this didn't answer your specific question!

i didnt get it, so parallel compression on an extra bus and blend together with the original signal is the same like the mix knob compressors so i can use a compressor on my inserts and just turn down the mix knob and then ist parallel compression?

[@ObjectiveMixing]

You got it. Not every compressor or effect has this function, so sometimes the bus is necessary.

why doesn’t anyone solo the aux channel!?!?? so I can hear what 100% wet reverb sounds like! I’m trying to program it but it seems I’m still getting tons of dry signal in the aux channel. Even though I have it on 100% wet. Is this normal or is something wrong with my settings?

[@ObjectiveMixing]

This is normal if you're using an aux channel. If you want 100% verb, then apply it directly on your instrument channel and turn the wet/dry to 100% wet. Although I can't think of very many use-cases for this unless you're going for some weird effect.
