With several examples, he discusses and explains the impact that the often forgotten settings of ratio, attack and release can have on the groove.
You'll learn how to create a deliberate pumping effect on of your synths. Then Ben shows you how to use side-chain compression more subtly to help your kick and bass blend together in the mix.
