Hey Mr.BobaLew, thank you for sharing this! The arrangement is a pleasure to listen to and the mix sounds well polished too. Great work! - What kind of compressor did you use?

Jim-

You are always encouraging and who doesn't need that?

Thanks!

Thanks for the good words.

The compressor is a Logic Pro 9 stock plug-in. It is set to Platinum, just like my frequent flyer card (heh, heh) and I just don't compress very much. Vocals 4:1 usually, bass 2.5:1, everything else 1.5:1.

For me it is the least understood tool in the box. As a live chamber music guy from way back my ear perceives effects as 'contaminants' and I struggle to accept the benefits. I really do get it - the recording is an artificial creation in need of assistance, but the bias is still there.

This is probably not responsive to your question about compressors, but the less I know about a topic the more I have to say about it!

Thanks again for the good words!
