PC Audio Compressor

[techster]

Is there a plugin or software that will compress the audio on my pc? For example , I would like to compress streamed programs while I'm listening. The commercials really blast sometimes.

Audacity works well , but I have to record the program first.

im not sure to be honest as i use hardware to compress my audio (I do a lot of recording so i have a few rack mount compressors etc)

if your looking for a software compressor then you may want to check out people like m-audio, line-6 or mackie
one of those will probably have some software for live compression, line 6 more than the others.
