Thank you everyone! :)
Hey guys! Does anyone have any tips for Dr. Compressor??? I can't get past the 1st level even though on every other game I have completed multiple levels. Any tips on hearing compression better? Thank you!

the compressed sound sounds more ambient (further back) and the transients are less pronounced (further back-i,e not as in your face as the non compressed transients)

Compressed: 1. The snare has a tiny bit more release and saturation 2. You can hear more reverb. I never played with percussions, they suck :D

Listen for a lightly longer tail on the kick drum or the snare (kind of like reverb). This should get you started. Turn your volume up a little bit to hear the tail.
I just reached level 46 at Delay Control and I'm better than 99.9% of users at this game.
Just wondering who's at higher levels? It becomes really really hard at this point!

I only use electric guitar sounds for this game.
I hear timbral differences due to comb filtering/phasing/haas effect, but it's not so easy cause the timbral difference at a given delay changes depending on the type of guitar sound.
Overall, to my ears delays at 1-2-3 ms sound more phasey, there are more frequencies boosted and attenuated.
At this point, it takes me about 30-40 minutes to move on to the next level, repeating the games continuously.

I have a lot of trouble with the short delays. I do the daily workouts, I do not spend more than an hour on SoundGym if I can help it. I got other things to do. I am going to check out the piano one, I usually use guitars.
