Huh? Compressors have nothing to do with capturing a sound unless you use it in the recording chain which generally makes no sense. The widely accepted practice is to record totally dry and then apply effects, including compression, during the mix. Compression is a very useful tool and I see no virtue in excluding them from the recording process in search of greater purity or whatever. The point is to make the best sounding music by any means possible.
