In this free tutorial video, you will learn how to use the Waves H-Comp on an electric bass track. Paul starts off by turning off the analog circuit and then adjusts the threshold and the release times. Paul then moves on to the Punch and wet dry mix to make the bass fit nicely in the mix.

H-Comp combines the modelled behaviour of transformers, tubes, and transistors, together with the power and precision that only a plugin can provide. The result is a compressor with capabilities that engineers could only dream about back in the day. H-Comp lends a whole new meaning to the concept of THD: Total Harmonic Distinction.
