But I mean more along the lines of when you have an amateur the leans in for some words, or belts out the first word without backing off the mic, then your compressor (which should the heavy lifting) will treat you much kinder if you take to 5-8 words that are 30% louder and bring them down to average, or some artistic and FUNCTIONAL bit over average. It was a real aha-moment for me when I for the first time stopped thinking one tool had to do all the work.
