Re: Compression - In Depth
Been using compressors with limited knowledge so this is an insane help to me and other "baby" producers, I'm sure. 
Music isn't a competition.
Re: Compression - In Depth
Still love the thread...
what i used to hate about compression is that i felt threshold and ratio were doing the same thing and i never knew how much of each i should push...
here's a tip i came across that really helped me get the difference between threshold and ratio...
threshold : what //// what (part of the sound) you want to compress
ratio : how ///// how much are you compressing that part
that alone kinda changed everything for me.

Re: Compression - In Depth
I know this thread is called compression in depth, but really it is quiet superficial. No offense, honestly, totally dope thread, and I'm not flossin'. This is a great intro to the basic concepts of compression. But there are a lot of devils in the details. That is where I can get lost.
