I walk you through each section of the DBX 286s microphone processor and show you how to achieve a big, professional voice-over sound from this device. With the explanation in this video, you will learn how to improve the voice-over sound with any microphone. I take the technical explanations and break them down into non-technical terms so that even a beginner will understand. Learn how to set the mic preamp, compressor, de-esser, enhancer, and expander/gate. I also guide you through the process to best connect this unit with your computer audio interface.

IMPORTANT: If you use a dynamic microphone (like an RE20 or SM7B) with the DBX 286s, I suggest using a mic activator. Dynamic microphones require more gain than condenser microphones. Using only the gain from the DBX 286s for a dynamic microphone will introduce noise in your system.

FOR FOCUSRITE SOLO USERS #####
Specifically, on the Focusrite Scarlett Solo, you can ONLY connect the DBX 286s to the Solo XLR (channel one). Channel 2's input won't work. The Solo can receive both a mic level and the "balanced" line connection with its XLR connection. So you'll need a male 1/4" TRS cable from your line out of the DBX 286s to a male XLR into channel 1 of your Scarlet Solo.
