Greetings all! I would also like some assistance regarding the proper compression/mic setting for my K3. I've recently purchased a new Heil Pro Set Elite headset with the HC-6 element. I have my mic setting at 30 and my compression at 20. It appears to sound fine monitored in my headset and I have received good reports; however, it appears to be overdriving my THP HL-1.5KFX linear. I am driving it with approximately 80 watts output and have made the necessary adjustments to the ALC in conjunction with the amp, as per the amp's manual. I seem to be generating some local RFI (my TV) on peaks. This has occurred since I upgraded to the new Heil Pro Set Elite. When using my prior mic (Heil Pro Set Plus with the HC-4/HC-5 elements), I did not experience this issue. Any suggestions as to the proper mic/compression settings I can use to prevent overdriving my amp? Thank you for whatever suggestions you can recommend.
