i bought the compressor to help my quality, welll thats what i thougt it would do
I always encourage newbies to stick with plugin compressors. In fact, I've been doing this for 6 years and still don't own a hardware compressor. By far, compression is not the weakest link in my chain.

Does your audio interface have some sort of send/return in it? If it does not, you won't be able to even use the compressor without an external preamp. You'd connect it like this:
Mic > External Preamp > Compressor > Audio Interface
