for that pic i used Wave Editor...it's nice because it lets you "overlap" layers so you can compare files/waveforms...(mac only, though...)

it is easy to "match" GR for the two methods with a simple sine wave but when you try with music it is another story...
i think that is where the "magic" lies in the 2 comp method...you can "fine tune" the envelope to a much greater degree with two comps as opposed to one...

*edit: i do not use or condone magic
