    I got this free from ADSR a while back, never used it as I thought it was just another compressor, now I will try it 👍

    Hi, i love your videos, they are very informative. I have a question though. What's the difference between creating a separate return channel for compression and applying a compressor directly on the audio drum rack?

    Yeah that's a good explanation! Raising the average volume instead of the peak volume.

    Thank for a great video! Why should 'makeup' be set to off on the compressor? It makes the compressed signal way quieter...

    Would it work if you group all the separate tracks and set up a return channel and then compress the channel?

    do you use the same settings for the vocals? I figure you wouldn't but I don't have an idea what to put it on, don't hear a difference

    I tried the exact steps on my vocal buss, it makes all the breaths, reverb and sibilance come through so much more, Idk what I'm doing wrong

    Ok this is a great tutorial, however as soon as I start blending in the parallel compression to an audible level, my master signal starts redlining. How to fix this?
