Compressor/Limiter

What are the best settings to get a good punchy sound from these?

Do you just throw them over the master?

Sorry for being such a n00b

Hey,

What are you using? The compressors in Live or plugins?

the best set up is to put the compressor before the limiter , set up the compressor to make sure the limiter doesn't overwork the sound

The best technique I have found is to twiddle with the nobs until it sounds hot. Don't over compress. I made this mistake once and ruined one of my favorite tracks.
