Re: Digital Desk Processing Order?
The advantage, especially on bass guitar and vocals, are a more consistent level. I have a bass player that is all over the place, including FOH 
Never really had any issues with GBF due to compressors, more issues with bad monitors that can't go loud before feedback sets in. And these guys are not that loud on stage. Any decent hip hop act is way louder, except the already mentioned bass player. He likes it loud, but if I compress his sound in the monitors, he tends to turn his amp down.

That should give you an idea.
