I agree that coupling upward/downward compression to peak / rms is unnecessary, and confusing having "make-up gain" which is actually "peak level normalization".
The compressor is known to be quite "quirky" (but it's a lot better than the previous one ;))

The noise floor feature is quirky too. I figured out it really means "stop raising the gain while sound is below the noise floor" but gain might be low or high coming into the noise depending on what precedes. Noise after quiet signal gets raised more.

I made a note of the votes, so archived.
