I often had a very light compression sandwich with a 2:1 on each. Found it perfect for getting a consistent tone without sacrificing the dynamics/touch sensitivity of the clipping.
Much easier with the Boss GTK where you have access to multiple compressors in your chain for free. Now I'm back on analog that became far too expensive both in monetary terms and available space. Now I just have my compressor at the end as it gives more control over dynamics.
If I increased the size of my board a second comp would be my first purchase though!
