a little bit goes a long way, i try to dial in threshold till it’s barely active and i can see where its suppressing w no boosts to the eq curve, then depending on the area im trying to fix something in, i’ll dial in the curves so its only active where i want it. but i only use soothe where i hear problematic resonances, and i will try to deal with it other ways first. but its usually first in the chain or on groups.
