I've got a specific compression question, not a "what plugin to use" one. I saw this article:

I wanted to use the technique to take a mushy guitar with too much gain and use a compressor with a longer attack to make the track stand out a little more (its a demo, can't fix the tracking problem now). On the track I am mixing the bass is a little lost as well, due to the bassists tone. I was thinking of trying the same technique to get the attack of the bass to jump out more and make the line more audible. My question is, will using the same compression technique on two separate tracks interfere with each other? Will adding more attack to 1 panned guitar and the bass cause them to just get lost again?
