Compression can be a really difficult concept to wrap your mind around so in this episode we're gonna tackle this topic and hopefully bring some clarity. In the comments let me know what compressors you're using.

Never really understood compressors, always thought it was something they added in the studio. This helped a bunch, thanks!

@OtherTheDave 5 лет назад

They’re potentially useful at _almost_ any step in the signal chain, and very useful in live situations as well as in the studio! I can’t remember the last time I did a mix that didn’t involve _some_ compression _somewhere_ (and that includes monitor mixes, too). Just don’t over do it or things will sound weird. Knowing exactly what “over doing it” means is a topic that could fill a book. Fortunately, in the context of guitar pedals being used in guitar rigs, there’s an easy 2-step process: 1) If your guitar sounds more like the way you want it to with the compressor than it does without, it’s probably fine. 2) If you’re still in doubt, back off the compression knob a bit and return to step 1.

@San_Vito 5 лет назад

Well, they also ALWAYS add it in studio to everything. The best way to understand compressors is just to try them, and to do so in every part of the effect chain, since they're really versatile.

@mytorment 3 года назад

You just have to learn to picture the chain in your head, start with the least effecting into more dramatic, say drive into phaser will be powered but swishy is last say on the matter, phaser into drive has over all distortion but swishy internals, eventually everything becomes a preamp, and all you want is a preamp, they make the clover for that

@markferguson3745 3 года назад

That's why the blend is important; before that was a common feature, it really was only viable to place before drives, where the effect is NOT subtle; placed after, with a decent dry level, you can retain dynamics while increasing sustain.

@mikevioli6520 5 лет назад

dB relates to the volume of the signal, yes? If so, it’s great that this graph and chart illustrate how the loudest sound in the signal gets compressed down, but (when the threshold is exceeded and compression is active) are notes played quietly brought up to that same threshold? Take the example of when the knob sets the threshold at 9 dB. The signal peak is at 10dB, so there is (1) dB of compression....Is there also up to 8dB of “lift” / raise in level of signal below the threshold?

I’m glad you acknowledged the feel of compression. I often mention that I like to use compression as a “make playing easier” pedal and guys just don’t seem to get that. It’s like they NEED it to be an effect. I’ve found that the right amount of parallel compression just makes my rig more forgiving without affecting my sound a whole lot. Notes that might otherwise sound kind of clammy and weak are emphasized a bit more, etc.

I never comment on videos but felt like I had to. As someone whose only been playing a few years and just getting into pedals, your videos are incredibly helpful to understand what they do and how they work. Much appreciated
