Hey folks! I've been training my ear here everyday and it's been so hard to get score on Dr. Compressor!!! Is there any tips to hear them!? I'm so aware it's important to train regularly I just wanted to know how people hear them!
I just finished Dr. Compressor right before I read your post 😁
What I do is listen for real loudness vs apparent loudness. Real loudness is when the volume actually goes up, apparent loudness is when the timbre of the instrument is like if were being hit harder, but the volume really is not raising.
Also, as mentioned above by Marcus, listen for all the parts of the instument. Things that you would normally not hear, because they are softer, will become more audible with compression.
A big thing to listen for, to me, is the snare. On uncompressed drums the snare is very forward and in your face, whereas compression makes it recede quite a bit, and the tonality is often completely different,
