Hi Loopman,
The compressor in the clips shown in the shimmer video were used to increase the “sustain” of the guitar.
I wanted the guitar signal to be heard for as long as possible.
A compressor will help achieve this by watching the dynamics of the guitar signal.
As the output of the guitar starts to fade out the compressor will slowly turn the volume up so it seems as if it will ring for ever.
Of course there is a point where the strings just stop vibrating, but a compressor lets you hear the guitar for as long as possible and for as loud as possible while the strings are still vibrating.
