This is the third video in a four-part series about the Waves Abbey Road RS124 Compressor. Brent March focuses on the overhead track and shows us a neat trick exclusive to Studio One.

He demonstrates how to make the overhead sound glued and tamer. He also demonstrates how to use the splitter mode (which is unique to Studio One) to control the low-end and high-end information.

About Studio One’s Splitter Tool

Splitter is a powerful mixing feature that lets you route multiple simultaneous audio effects on a single channel in a myriad of ways: serial, parallel, or split by channel or frequency band. With Studio One 5.2 using  Splitter is now easier than ever.

Simply drag a new Splitter plug-in from the Browser to any Insert slot to split the signal path of that channel, then add more plug-ins to any of up to five paths.

Splitters are now shown inside the Inserts section of the console, so it only takes a quick glance to identify which channels use parallel processing and a single click to open the Channel Editor to view and adjust routing.
