Try The 2A when a performance needs steadier level with a simple control set. It suits vocal and bass decisions where you want to focus on the amount of levelling rather than a bank of timing controls.

A starting point

Increase Peak Reduction while listening to phrase endings and louder notes, then restore the working level with Gain. Compare compression and limiting modes on the actual performance.
