It's the What.cd Wiki... basically their tutorial section...

I trust it completely, it's a private dedicated music torrent site full of audiophiles... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Oh those Wikis. I thought it was actually wikipedia. You know how professors hate that. In all my classes there is this bigass sign that says wikipedia with a red circle and a line through it.

As the name implies, compression reduces the dynamic range of a signal. It is used extensively in audio recording, production work, noise reduction, and live performance applications, but it does need to be used with care. It's commonly said that compressors make loud sounds quieter, and the quiet sounds louder, but this is actually only half correct.

So... some sound processors apparently have some technology to restore lost dynamic range to compressed music. Sony HU's have DM+, for instance, and Creative X-Fi soundcards have Crystalizer (I think its called). Obviously these can never quite replace what was lost, but how effective are they? Would be interesting to see graphical evidence of their effectiveness, or lack thereof.
