In Soviet Russia compressors own you.
You may think you can fly ... but you better not try

3 for every channel you’re using, 5 for every bus
Dynamic range is sooooo 1974

If you own a large number, compressing them using a lossless compression method can make the things more manageable. You will end up with maybe half the number of compressors, and your music will still sound the same. You can compress your compressors even further using a lossy algorithm, maybe to 1/10th the number, but quality will increasingly suffer.
