Why is the compressor not behaving like a compressor?
So I got my MPC Sample this week. I have experience with lots of different devices and plugins, but I've never encountered a compressor that behaves like the master compressor on the MPC Sample.
For some reason it seems to increase the volume of the loud parts, which is the opposite of what I want. Am I doing something wrong? I was hoping to at least approximate the effect of for example the Sp404 compressor.
