Basics of Compression

Using a compressor and understanding compression is one of the hardest things for entry audio engineers to grasp. With so many different compressors and compressors types its not hard to see why people struggle with compression.

Compression is critical to getting good mixes in music today and without a proper knowledge of compressors and how to use them your mixes will turn thin and lifeless.

Gain core skills you need to start using a compressor

Course Overview

Compressors can add color to tracks, crush drums, smooth out vocals, and add weight to a bass.

Gain the confidence you need to use compressors right away.

Compressors can both add to a track and take away. For example, with a compressor you add punch to a kick drum and you can take the punch away. It all depends on how you use it.

Using compression properly will help improve your mixes by keeping dynamics controlled.

By sharing some of his knowledge of 15 plus years in audio, Czar’s course will teach you the following:

  • What is a compressor
  • How is compression used
  • Controls on a compressor
  • How use the controls on a compressor
  • The difference between compressors and limiters
  • Analogy for understanding compression
  • Examples of how compression controls work
