Welcome

Sounds like you've got a FANTASTIC start on recording at home!
Good choices to start with...

You should be able to get a compressor that doesn't cost too much money...
Look at one called the Alesis "Micro Compressor"...
You should be able to find one for 60 to 80 dollars...
A little saving / shouldn't take too long...

Good luck and keep writing!
 
you could always just use a software plug-in compressor...
im sure you're program came with SOMETHING, and if you just make sure about your levels while recording, you wont have to overuse the compression to find out how bad it really is.
