Re: Audacity Compressor settings
The best way to make Audacity sound good is to switch to something other than Audacity. Try REAPER.

Re: Audacity Compressor settings
The right settings for a compressor depend on your input signal. Unfortunately, the compressor in Audacity isn't capable of visualizing the signal as it goes through (probably a limitation in the plugin architecture), so there'd be a lot of experimentation involved.
In the meantime, here's a description of what the various settings of compressors actually do: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression
