Parallel Master Bus Compression

As an addendum to my Bus plugin video, here's a little video explaining how I use a multi-parallel signal chain to achieve bus compression with three different compressors. It's a kind of Michael Brauer technique, but mine is a bit simpler and set up differently. 

Have you ever felt that the sound of your buss compressor lacked in some qualities? In this video I show how I set up my sessions with multiple sets of bus compressors, running in parallel alongside a main bus compressor. It's a great way to combine the best qualities of different bus processors.

This doesn't work for every song, but if you're interested I go over how I set this up and the practical benefits.
