I'm talking about advanced concepts regarding dynamic range compression. I talk about limiting, parallel compression, sidechain compression, deessing, multiband compression... I also talk about the difference between peak and RMS measurements and a bunch of other related topics. Looks like I can't make short videos. I had tons of fun with this one, I hope you can tell. I like editing videos with Kdenlive a lot.
