compression

i know that i'm no good at compression - most of the time i
use the presets in TrackS and i know i shouldn't :(

i really wanna try and get compression right, especially
since i'm hoping to start on some new material that is
gig-worthy.

my stuff doesn't seem to be as big as i'd like it to be, i
mean i want huge drums but i still want my synths and
"textures" to be heard as well, and i don't seem to be able
to get both :(

i was thinking - would it be better to compress different
things differently? like, say export only bass synths from
Reason, compress them with a suitable setting, then export
drums and compress those, export anything else and compress
that and then bring it all back together?

or is that overkill?

i really need help guys and gals :(

apparently, it's better to use seperate compression on each
of the tracks.

I don't really bother with compression in the classic sense
though.

are you planning on doing static compression, or a form of
dynamic variable comp.

i use compression on my drums in Reason, but i know that the
compressor in Reason is a bit naff.

for my "mastering" i use Peak 4.12 and TrackS AU........i
usually end up using the "Loud and Clear" preset most of the
time :(

erm.....by static do you mean just doing the whole track in
one as a stereo file, or compressing individual tracks?

Raaaaaaaars are more effective than Zips.

I'm not familiar with the music applications, but I'll keep
an eye on this thread for relevent questions pertaining to
compression and algorithms.

PAQAR is the best. Compare yourself.
