Default Re: I hate compressors!

I'll just add, that it was true what AE's told me years ago, that compressors (I guess like all the other techniques) take a while to understand... and I'm certainly still learning. Techniques and equipment shouldn't be seen to have 'black and white' uses. A compressor doesn't have to just be used to bring audio levels together. Like tacman7 says, compressors can just add a pleasant subtle sound to audio. Also, don't jump in on one particular design/make, try some free plugins, or watch/listen to demos.
