it allows you to get the full effect of real tube saturation at low volumes

ok, I'm not very good with pedals and stuff(I only have an acoustic) but is that what a compressor pedal is for? To give it the tone of a compressed speaker? If so... you could use the attentuator and the compressor and have good tone at a low volume, right??? So instead of having to have a tube amp set at a high volume to get the tone you could use these two pedals to get the same tone at a low volume?
