[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 100449, member: 1285"] Re: Compressor Question Not necessarily, compressing the vocals and having less compression (or none) on the reverb and delay works well (David Bowie - China Girl). When the singer goes loud, it will not get an awful lot louder (which is the purpose of the compression in the first place), but you get a bigger sound from having more reverb and delay, so you almost retain the dynamics of the performance while keeping levels in check. As long as you have a free compressor channel, you might want to use it on the effect returns with less compression and/or a higher threshold. [/QUOTE]
