1) Use a Fast Compressor (e.g. 76) and Start with 4:1, Rather Slow Release and Medium Attack for Gorgeous Snare or Fast Release for Snappy Snare
2) Often for Snare and Bass a Bigger Ratio is Better, e.g. 12:1 on a 76
3) Follow Up with Rather Slower 2nd Compressor Such as LA-2A, Try One that also Adds High Frequencies
4) Add Saturation Tool Such as Decapitator
5) Compensate Lost High end Due to Compression with a 73 EQ by Increasing Mid and High Band a Bit
6) Same Process Counts for Kick
