Compiling several sequences into a single project with different main compressor settings seems to be impossible to automate. The compressor is on the project level; the sequences all share the same settings.

Bouncing tracks won't for me. My goal is to load many sequences for live performance, many of which rely on their own compressor settings.

The best option I've found so far is to send all the tracks to FX2, turn on MIDICC control for FX2, and load the compressor. Then I have to insert CCs into an empty track on each sequence to change the FX2 compressor to the desired settings.

Have you discovered any work-arounds?

This is the same for all OS'. Mast Comp setting in not stored with a sequence, it's global as you see. To recall an effect you first set up effects, you got 20 sets of [2 fx + main] you can store. Than you enter step edit and choose [insert], scroll to effect and set up value (20 sets), you can input this on any track, or you can dedicate a track for it, doesn't matter. Effects sets are saved within All _Seq&Songs file

yeah, you can insert effect event anywhere, if you for example insert few on a track they will switch automatically, if you input them on beginning than yes, everytime you will switch a seq, effects set will be recalled.,JUST if difference in level (compressor) will be high you might get a sort of click sound, that's why best to switch effects where none of previous effects is in use (or fading out).
