Mr. Dancetech. Let me tell you this is the most well explained tutorial about Compressors I have seen in the WEB untill now. ..... and I`ve seen a LOT ¡¡¡¡ Thanks for it....¡¡¡¡¡¡

[@dancetech]

Thanks.

[@davidharrington1133]

Totally agree. Top drawer

[@ClarkWagaman-pw7to]

Excellent ! I'm so glad I found your tutorials. They are superb ! Thank you so much !

[@tsd64]

All your video's are excellent! Very detailed tutorials and easy to understand. Thanks!

[@SteveStockmalMusic]

Great tutorials !!! You ARE my new hero ! Funny that at 1:41 as you describe ‘amplitude’ a car horn outside gives us a real world example of volume !!! 😊

[@croquisdusinistre4278]

found myself watching the whole thing so far - even though I already knew all this. that's how good the teaching is. Can't wait for actual examples of 'best practice' on different signals with different compressors, but I hear it's coming

[@orknobe]

You are already one of my favourite teacher... you reminded me of my high school teacher... he was my favourite..

[@studiox5128]

Wow!! This instruction made my stupid thing clear!! Thank you for teaching!!

[@xkguy]

This guy is one of the best teachers on the web! His Guitar Busker video was outstanding too.

[@tecnica-de-voz]

it took me a long time to understand this, this video is GOLD. Thank you dancetech.

[@big-g-musiclondon9298]

This is brilliant, I don't have a clue when it comes to compressing and stuff, I kind of play around until I like the sound without knowing what the hell i'm actually doing. This is great. Many videos on this topic gloss over terms that beginners like myself do not know. Keep uploading please.

[@thechahal]

I've taken a day off work to watch these tutorials! Enough said.. Thank you very much

[@sonicindustries227]

Seems obvious that basic audio concept tutorials for compressors and the like would have been done many times - though I can't think of any. Certainly not as well broken down as this. Yet again we're indebted to Dancetech

[@Frankkazanable]

just wow, to be honest, you are the best teacher ever. I watched too many videos about compressors but any of them could help me realize the topic thoroughly. Appreciate it. By the way, your snare sounds awesome =)).

[@BCRaai]

You are my GURU, JUST AWESOME, very clear tutorial. Thanks you so much for giving us this on free..

[@urbandelinquent]

Wicked loved the in depth explanation of attack, release, decay... Proper stuff..

[@JOUA1400]

These principles apply beyond, compression, in music. Excellent!!!-Thanks man.

[@tilleyroadaffairproduction6752]

Absolutely fantastic!!! Thank you so much I finally get it. Can't wait for the next part. Salut from Eastern Canadian Coast!

[@dancetech]

cheers. :)

[@toddlask]

hey, im diggin' your vids. i hope u continue with the compressor series. your style really helps me understand.

[@dancetech]

+Todd Laskowicz yeah, more to come, but we just had a huge office cleanout and the imac broke and has to go for repair, so a bit of a delay.

[@monaw3280]

Thank you for this great tutorial. We just started producing and find this really helpful! We are eagerly waiting for the next videos. Cheers from sunny Berlin!

[@dancetech]

+Mona Weiss thanks.

[@suryamoorthy4924]

NO NEGATIVES BEC U R SOOOO GOOD !

[@Jorge.O85]

Yesss !! this totorial is very well explained. Thanks a lot ! 👍🏼

[@TheDJEDS]

DAMN... i finally understand why some instrument require faster attack and release than others... this is so well presented! However, those same settings can be used to affect tone and position (in your face, or far away) if i'm not mistaking. So if i get it, the comp will always affect the amplitude whether you work on the tone or the position of a track, but then the make up gain brings it (amp) back to a sustain level that matches the overall mi, is that right? My next question would be: if the previous paragraph is correct, how can you affect tone without messing up the amp of a track using a compressor? is that actually possible? this channel is the truth!!!

[@TheDude-vx6wn]

Superb explanation. Thank you!

[@marecaree]

Man... You are the KING! :)

[@alanr1062]

Very good and informative - you are the first person to properly explain ADSR envelopes - thank you I've got a Scarlett 2i2 audio interface - is it any use downloading that Focusrite compressor or are the ones in Logic pro better?

[@mkstudiomkstudio6798]

Thank you so much for your helpful tutorials

[@BerlinCK13]

Very good tutorial! Thank you!

[@dancetech]

+Conny Koehler thanks :)

[@rossfenmore4366]

I really have a clearer visual of attack and release (the envelope) now. I’m curious to see when to use shorter or longer times. It appears that longer release times must compress the signal while it is under the threshold.

[@delillemusic3810]

You're bloody amazing!

[@mantravine]

thank you. sooooo good again. i want to hear your music. where can i get access to that?

[@dancetech]

i haven't done any music projects for years. All my old stuff isn't online, sorry.

[@mantravine]

nothing to apologise for. if you ever make some new music, pls share with me if you remember.

[@paolodicarlo9927]

amazing !!!!! thank you so much

[@dancetech]

cheers mate. There's more parts to come.

[@ZiadSidawi]

16:59 your cat answers your question!

[@Martin-vj7zx]

Ahhhh so the first hit of the note or clip doesn't always get affected by the compressor, because that is not always the highest peak of the transient. Makes sense

[@subhasisbiswas5900]

its verry helpfull

[@jeuxdeau2009]

THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU
