Kaleb, I have neither a firewire interface nor Pro Tools, so someone else who has both of those may be able to offer some suggestions,
It sounds like your only issue is that signal boost when you insert the compressor. What are the readings when you lower the output of the compressor until PT shows the same level signals going into and out of the insert?
Also, what does the input meter on your compressor read with the Input Threshold fully clock-wise and PT set at 0 VU going to the insert?
