    This is the best explanation of compression i have ever seen.
    most people brush over it or explain it too hard.
    this was very detailed ...and every detail was demonstrated.

      Glad it was helpful!...even if you use ableton. The compression details I gave works on any compressor, it was all general, just happened that I use studio one, so I had to use the stock plugin cause its the easiest to understand.
      Thanks for your message 😊 🙏

    Great ideas, god awful vocal loop! (not sound quality, just not my idea of singing at all).

      Sorry man... it's hard to get a loop and not get hit by copyright. I just found this on one of my sample loops and tried it several times to make sure it won't get hit...then I decided to build the whole thing on it...maybe next time I should sing lol
