[sdiy] Advice

the simple reason the 303 needs to be compressed is that when you make acid
(which is what most people use it for) you turn the knobs. especially when
you add resonance, the volume drops quite significantly. the compressor is
only to keep resonance and non-resonance equal in volume..
but you can also quite easily ride the fader on the mixer to make up for the
loss of gain..
