Compressor is an effect commonly used  to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio signal. For 
signals that vary widely in dynamics, su ch as vocals and guitar parts, it “squeezes” the dynamic range, effectively making 
soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with ga in to boost the overall level, this creates a more powerful, 
more consistently high-level sound.
