The only way it will work properly is to bring it up on two faders. I gave up on this one.
You cannot get huge compression and only have 10% of it in the mix as the moment you change the mix to 10% it drops the amount the signal is compressed defeating you trying to add heavily compressed signal back with the source.
Then when you drop the level of the output it only drops the level of the compression.
So if you are driving the input hard you are always stuck with this at the output.
Don't use the mix control.

I don't agree. The gain reduction meter shows less gain reduction when you mix in dry. This is because the gain reduction meter is not only for just the wet signal, it takes into account the fact that the dry is being mixed in too. The amount of wet compression is still the same as it was at 100% wet.spencerlee wrote: You cannot get huge compression and only have 10% of it in the mix as the moment you change the mix to 10% it drops the amount the signal is compressed defeating you trying to add heavily compressed signal back with the source.
It is better this way, as you can see the overall amount of gain reduction that is being done. This can be done because the parallel processing in done in one plugin, so we can have the luxury of a global GR as opposed to having it on a bus with a send.

jmg8 I don't believe it.
Go into edit mode and look at the graph on the right.
Then put mix at zero and there is no compression on the graph.
