Compressor School...

For those of you that feel like you jumped in the deep end of the pool with all this compressor talk, I just came across this page, which is an excellent and easy-to-read discourse on the various different kinds of compressors, why they do what they do, and basic ideas for using them in normal work. If you’re just getting in to pro audio (or if you’re an editor of Sonic State) and don’t really understand all this arm-waving about compressors, I strongly suggest giving that page a once-over.
