But turning up the output knob on the amp sim does exactly the same thing. ???
Feeding more gain into the compressor will complicate the compression settings, based on where your threshold is set. that's all i'm saying. And yes, when I crank the volume on my amp sim, it affects the threshold point of the compressor. So i make sure to have the sim set and ready first, then i add the compressor and play with the threshold. once my threshold is set, i add volume via the compressors output gain. if i did move the guitar/bass fader up for volume, then i'd go back into the compressor and see if it is now compressing too much since that threshold is being crossed more often now.
when i wrote "add output gain", i meant via the compressor. sorry if that wasn't clear. my mistake.
