Compression - What It Is and How It Works

Hi,
In this video, I'm going to explain the 4 most common parameters you will find in audio compressors and I'm going to also explain the different types of compressors that you can use in your productions to get great mixes.

Compressors are one of the most difficult tools to understand in music production. When I started making music professionally, I would use compressors but now really understand why I was using them. A few months ago, I was mixing one of my beats and I thought to myself: this track does not need compression. For a long time, I added compressors to all my tracks without too much thought. But after mixing hundreds of tracks, I started to get a better feeling of how and when to use compression to get the sound that I want.
You can get there too with practice and hopefully with the help of this video.
