Compression, however light, is an essential function in many genres of music including here. WMD Mscl, Erica Synths Stereo Compressor and Cosmotronic Messor seem good modular options. I personally record in Logic, I keep the live performance but I often add a slight touch of the PSP VintageWarmer2 plugin (a soft analog-style compressor/limiter) to finalize before the bounce.
In any case, the function of this type of module would deserve to be, I think, a criterion in its own right in the list of functions in the ‘Modules’ page. Even if for other kinds of music, the dynamic range of the modular synthesizer really does not need it...
@troux Does your compressor (WMD Mscl, I believe), in addition to its primary function, also add a kind of additional warmth/saturation or does it remain very transparent? Thanks in advance!
