Compression is a "hot" topic, and this is Part 2 of my discussion about how it works and how you can get started understanding it better.

In this episode, I talk about:

• The aspects of a plugin (Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Gain)
• A quick roundup of how it works
• How you should practise it yourself
• What compression ISN'T (ie. Limiter, Normalisation, Dynamic Gates)

YouTubers I recommend for Compression learning:

• AudioHaze: https://www.youtube.com/@audiohaze
• Booth Junkie: https://www.youtube.com/@boothjunkie
• In The Mix: https://www.youtube.com/@inthemix
