Day 269: Good Ableton Compression tutorial.

Compression, it's one of the boring, yet essential things. Boring cos we get in the realm of signal levels, ratios and audio peaks etc... however the effect it has on your track/mix is conversely quite exciting.

One of the first things I learnt was that adding compression to a track helps it sit better in the mix, and this it does, tho I never really understood how or why. This video goes a long way to explain that, and is combined with a real world example, which makes it much easier to understand.

Go compress yer heart out...
