In a mechanical sense, this term evokes images of pressure, tension, and stored energy. It describes a process of force applied to a gas to make it more dense, often for the purpose of powering tools or refrigeration systems. In the realm of audio engineering, the term shifts from physical pressure to signal management. Here, it refers to the smoothing of volume peaks, creating a polished, consistent sound that prevents audio clipping and ensures a voice remains audible over loud background music.

A specific piece of hardware or software, such as having three different compressors in a recording studio.
