WARNING - GOOGLE / YOUTUBE SOMETIMES DOESN'T UNDERSTAND ME - CONT41N5 ERROR5! :)
I cannot believe okay that in a couple of couple of times I've I've had to do a
second take as I thought no that just wasn't up to standard I think once I did
three takes you're not gonna believe this
this is the fifth time I've made this video and I've decided in doing a
complete of away because it just wasn't coming out right reason is is I was
doing some live work on the mixing desk here showing you what the processor
looked like I mean it was okay my headphones when I come to edit it it was
just just wrong however I can do compression in software so I can show
you what he sounds like now if you've come to the channel
because you're an audio going you wanting to know how a compressor worked
you've kind of come to the right place however most of the crew around here a
ham radio guys because we get a button on our radios Kenwood's call it prog
which is processor which is actually a compressor but I think there's more to
it not come to that in a minute and my ts-990 is got a processor
potentiometer like a knob you know these are menu driven to the 519 the 2000 but
some of its called comp compressor you know now I remember reading your article
many moons ago it could have been e ham you are said I can't remember but one
guy there said oh yeah but that's the reason the Kenwood transmit audio is so
good because someone has spent a lot of time working on the processor and he
also said well Lisa rigged for you know comes out at the end so on the screen
here I've got the re 20 selected way with the processor on and my noise gate
we are vocal don't tell me all that's wrong no it's fine it wasn't wrong now
you've got the processor on okay and this is how I normally run it I
normally run a very light compression through the microphone and makes it into
the camera and I'll just take you through some of the controls because all
these controls somehow end up on one control knob on a radio Oh interesting
so I'll show you what they all are and I'll point and then I'll use my mouse as
well so this camera can see where I'm going to point out and then you can find
my mouse so when I switch screens you'll be able to see it so this is that the
processor is on because it's in cyan color and then I've got this what they
call threshold as you can see as I meant when I moved to threshold this thing
here moves as well and it's kind of a visual representation of the processor
effectively now at the moment because I'm not speaking very loudly there's no
gain reduction coming that way but we're gonna do a test now we'll do a 1 2 3 4 1
2 3 4 so it's Harley I'm Harley even getting 3 DB of gain reduction because
I'm hardly breaking the - 30 DB barrier on the meter here ok anyway is a very
light processor hardly at all in fact it's not even kicking in I could force
it to kick in but I bring that down a bit and now you'll see the this red
coming down trying to minimize the amount of processor insert I'm getting
tiny amount if at all none just in case what sneeze or a cough or a laugh really
loudly hopefully it will bring the volume down it'll bring the volume down
according to the next one which says ratio ok so anything above this it says
- 32 and a half at the moment anything above that it's gonna bring it down to a
ratio of 3 to 1 which means I would need to go another 3 dB to knock the volume
also I only increase the volume by 1 dB so 3 to 1 is a pretty mild processor
compression so look a hundred to one is almost ready
infinite really which becomes a limiter then it's impossible to go over the the
threshold you just won't it just blocks it completely and then we've gotten a
type of knee so you can either have very this is a very soft knee so in other
words it gradually brings brings the volume down it doesn't slam it down like
it would do it number one there if I broke that it would start to bring it
down really hard so that's what they call me okay forget mix gain you always
need a bit of gain when a processor without the gain what happens the
processor is actually taking the peaks and shoving them back down only the
peaks according to this gain reduction threshold a few other odds and ends
which jump is about to come to pushes down therefore what you need to do is
you need a bit of extra gain to bring the levels back up again which is why if
you run a lot of processing alive you're more likely to get feedback because
you've just brought the channel gain right up okay so be careful about that
one but the next three over here attack hold and release it says it here so this
is quite cool and again this is all integrated into the radio and they will
just get one not for all this so it's how fast do you want me to put the game
reduction in how much do you want me to hold that gain reduction before I again
release it and how long am I going to release it for so I'm using as you can
tell here because of the red little ribbon coming up and down here on the
right hand side on the left hand side where under gain reduction I'm using
almost no compression at all what I'm going to do is I'm going to use the
software processor which I've got in Adobe Premiere Pro to show you the
difference between very mild compression and overly processed because it is only
software after all it's an audio waveform now
yesterday's film and that film was about the 80 meter all band vertical 80 40
blah blah blah blah I didn't realize but I've been playing with my mixing desk
here and I'd ended up with quite a hard
processor and I'm as I'm but once it's processed you can't process it you know
and I'm editing it more last night now I don't thinking that's a bit much so I'll
have to go back to the mixing desk reset it and make a film and that's reminds me
I must get this video out about compression that's what it is ah right
the Easter eggs I was talking about you see I got a funny feeling some radio
sound better than others they just do and historically Kenwood radios to
transmit RF on Kenwood historically has actually been very good its world
renowned for fantastic transmit audio now I am convinced that they're doing
more than one thing now there's a couple of people who know about broadcast on
the channel and you know who you are and a lot of you will say galati there's
a dozen or so guys out there that understand am broadcast FM broadcast
what is a limiter and what is a compressor and how how these things are
built into the transmitted modules okay for broadcast now I'm wondering if
there's a little bit of that in these radios in other words we just get the
one button for a processor don't we well that's doing everything is doing the
ratio it's do an attack hold release gain doing everything but also we've got
this waveform which is as I'm speaking to you down but we've also got a
waveform just before it leaves the RF and he's amplified and goes out the door
up the coax I'm wondering if they're processing the RF as well so in fact as
you start to turn out the RF itself is being processed
so the peaks are coming down the speech intelligibility is coming up which is
why when you overprocess it it sounds absolutely crap so let's do it now I'm
gonna say one phrase twice the first time is gonna be just like this the next
time in software I'll copy the and I'll give you mega processing just
to hear what it sounds like so we'll do the quick brown folks yeah the quick
brown fox jumped over the lazy cow now I'm gonna repeat people mmm-hmm now I'm
gonna repeat that exactly the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy cow now I
haven't actually said that twice I've edited that in so you can tell that's
that's a bit maybe overly processed then we do that again with the overly
processed here we go the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy cow you can tell
that the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog when he's overly processes
starts to sound like Oh something wrong here's the difference between Radio 1 ok
and radio 4 radio 1 they're up to the bump stops okay they really are well
radio for a lot of headroom so without a processor you get a lot of dynamic range
so and hahahaha he's larold and whenever he quiet it's very quiet you see and
that's that's what it is I must be a bit tired today cuz I keep looking at the
meter on the screen which is right next to the camera and round looking at the
lens normally I've trained myself over the last 12 months just to look at the
lens and ignore what's going on next to it but it differently it's quite
difficult when this effectively a mirror right makes the lens
a out you put a piece of paper on it and just leave it tough ok so that's it for
today are you still running here amazing we haven't broken the 10 minute mark
then or think it's about 12 so have a think about that and if you know more
about this topic please comment below and let me know because I'm absolutely
fascinated to know how the processor works all the modern radio that would be
really interesting for me and for some of the guys out there so my name is
Callum from PS commander thanks for tuning in don't forget if you enjoy my
stuff give me a thumbs up by the way and if you don't want to lose track of me
and you're not subscribed YouTube might one day stop serving my stuff up to you
and we might lose track of each other all you need to do is hit subscribe
there's no skin off anybody's nose just hit the subscribe and then at least then
we'll stay in track and then if you want a notification that for instance I've
got live or something you'd have to hit the bell okay
I just don't let you know all the best for now bye
you
