hehe. thanks for your viewpoint James....true, they can flatten a great dynamic signal like a cheap pizza, but in many aspects of recording, live sound and broadcast they're extremely useful tools. Unfortunately not every medium can handle a signal with a huge dynamic range, and for what I'm working with compressors are a necessary evil.
Used correctly and in moderation a compressor can sound very natural.
