Bring Guitars to life with exciters⁠
—————————⁠
Some would classify an exciter as a type of distortion effect. However, it’s more than that. An exciter adds saturation to the signal frequencies in the higher ranges (3k and up). This produces more overtones and adds richness and crispness to your mix. It enhances the sound where EQ alone can’t seem to get it.⁠

This is extreme but important. Next, figure out how much attack and release you need first, then readjust the threshold to taste.⁠ ----------⁠ Source: https://www.masteringthemix.com/
