Are we too dependent on Compression? Is compression to music what prozac is to depression? Do we automatically just assume that we need to compress any signal that goes through the desk? Are there any recording Gurus here that use compression as a last resort?
Of course I'm assuming that the musician(s) is of a high caliber in general and that he or she plays smooth and steady. Unless you're using a box that oozes quality, wouldn't compressing degrade the signal more that actually help it? These are the dilemnas that occupy my mind at the moment.... please set my mind at ease.
Thanks,
