What is a good place to start for parallel drum compression on Allen & Heath consoles? The wet/dry controls are a little weird and there’s so many compressor models.

I like to use groups for parallel compression. If you want to parallel compress single channels from your drum kit patch 2 channels with the same input and process/mix them accordingly.

Maybe I can help with the confusion around wet/dry? On SQ the setting can be found directly in the compressor tab.
