In this video, I take an in depth look at the settings you can use to get maximum sustain out of your compressor. This is a question I have received many times over the last while and I figured it was about time to do a video dedicated to it. I really hope you enjoy the video.

Excellent video, Jason. I've been waiting for a video just like this. In particular, I really like the way you took the time to walk us through each step carefully and A/B'd the signals. For those of us that have struggled with "hearing" compression, it makes a huge difference in understanding how it works.

Perfect timing. Exactly what I needed to know. I've gained a new appreciation for the use of Compressors in Helix because of your videos. Thanks
-
Finally, a video that helps me understand what compression does! Thanks Jason.

Fantastic! I was able to adopt these settings as a baseline to adapt across all 8 of my snapshots, from clean through to soaring lead.

Thanks for the help. I really was looking for something like this.

I was messing with the comp block before the amp last night, and trying to find the sweet spot. Super helpful video as always, thank you!

Comp and EQ are evasive mystery me. I will be adding this to a compressor favorite today. Thanks bro!

Wow ! Great video ! Incredibly informative. Now starting to make sense. Plus we get to hear your incredible guitar playing skills. Thank you so much.

Thank you Jason: a very helpful video👏

Another really good explanation

Thanks again for an excellent video Jason. I seem to remember from your other videos you also increased Amp Sag and bias x. With most of my presets sustain seems to be the most difficult to achieve. Will try this ASAP. I have requested a sustain block through line 6 but I am guessing it not that simple. Cheers
