I have downloaded Chris's dynamic compressor and see it in my applications folder. However, I cannot drop it into the plug-ins folder in Audacity. It refuses to drop into that folder. If I double click the folder containing Chris's dynamic compressor, I'm told I need to find an application to open it with. I am using Mac 10.8.5
You download it as a zip file. Have you extracted the zip? You can try right-click > Open with > Archive Utility or download The Unarchiver: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/the-una ... 4353?mt=12 .

Note that you need an administrator account to modify the /Applications folder.
