I have taken the liberty of creating a downloadable browser-based notebook called "Compression Uncompressed". This notebook contains an in-depth description and discussion of the basics of audio compressors and compression and was written with the rookie and intermediate home recording enthusiast in mind.
General topics covered include an introduction to compression and compressor types, an explanation of compressor controls, an analysis of compression settings, an examination of when and how to use compression, a look at multi-band compression, and a routine for practicing with a compressor.
This browser-based notebook is available for download for free for anyone and everyone who may be interested. No strings attached, other than the usual standard legalese, which can be found in the Readme documentation file at the top of the .zip package. Also found in that doc file will be instructions on how to unzip the package properly and how to make an "autorun" CD-R out of it, if desired. The most important instruction is that when you unzip the package, you must choose the option to have your unzip program retain the encoded folder/directory structure and not have it just unzip everything into a single directory.
So, feel free to grab yourself a copy if you wish. Any general followup questions to the material in the book can be posted here as a discussion that everybody can contribute to. Any personal comments or issues requests to send me big wheelbarrows full of cash can be directed to me in PM or via e-mail

The notebook can be downloaded at
