How to Use the Compressor - Ableton Tutorial

[@ployboy8587]

I went through like 3 videos trying to understand it. Finally the most clear explanation. Thank you.

[@RMeisterMusic]

This was like the most straightforward and direct video over on Ableton's compression. Thank you for this. I can now apply this to other compressors I have with confidence. It doesn't need to be a 55 minute video! You rock, sir!

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR

[@SimonStirlingdirect2florist]

[@markgonzalez1713]

Excellent video tho, keep pumpin em out y'all!

[@cursedaccount6067]

@Titus Brayan lmao thats depressing

[@boshi9]

This is the most helpful tutorial I've found so far. Too many people just hand-wave what settings like "release" do without demonstrating them clearly.

Can you (or should you) compress MIDI tracks? I don't have a real bass guitar so I'm using a virtual instrument. I went ahead and added a compressor to my bass and a different compressor to the drums (both MIDI tracks) and after some manipulation it actually sounds amazing! I like it, and I know that's what matters most, but my question is - is it normal or acceptable to do this?

[@timisgrindgames4663]

sure! It doesn't make a difference if you have an audio or midi track

[@samsmusichub]

@@timisgrindgames4663 Great thank you so much for answering!

[@fullmatiz]

[@gasmy2257]

Thank u.

So when you record vocals, you just track it dry and use the compression later after the vocals is tracked? It always bothers me when I record the vox, , in the recorded track (unedited track), I can hear the slightest breathing, clothes rubbing, its driving me nuts!

[@hartley9672]

For that you need a gate not a compressor. I personally use Brusfri. It's amazing simple and works perfectly.

[@zimdo]

always use a vocal chain while tracking/recording - mayb autotune, noise gate, eq, compressor, de-esser, etc. Because u want the your vocals to sound as good as possible to fit your mix. When putting an fx chain on your vocals, ur not changing the audio signal itself - ur just changing how the audio sounds thru ur monitors.

Thank u

[@oscardeee]

compre sir

[@Tumanic1996]
