If you\'ve ever heard that "you don\'t really need compressors", I hate to break it to you, but that is a lie. People say this because the compressor is a less intuitive technology than say an equalizer. Still, along with the EQ, this is one of the two most pivotal audio effects you can use for your mixes. In this episode, we break it down and teach you how to use the compressor!
