Unlock the Power of Parallel Compression: Tips, Tricks, and Scheps Secrets

We’ll explore two popular methods to achieve it, from classic aux sends to modern plugin magic. Learn why blending a heavily compressed signal with your original track creates that larger-than-life sound, and discover the sweet spots for your compression settings.
