I need a good vocal compressor

[Timmy]

Im not real knowlaged on compressor/limiters, but my vocals are all over the place in the studio, so I know enough to know I could use some compression. So what would be a good vocal compressor?

If you buy the Fmr. Audio RNC from www.mercenary.com they
double the warranty to two years-not that it's likely you'll need it
the warranty.

Uhhhhh...you know me and my questions... this is going to sound really dumb, but what does a compressor do, exactly?

Anyone have a link to a good thread that talks about them off hand? Or something like a quadraverb while we're at it? I don't know anything about effects or even where to start???
Thanks,
Jed
