Ethos users: do you feel the need to have a compressor?

[AdamSH89]

I'm looking at picking up an ethos clean when it comes out. I don't really go for the "always on" compressor ideas, but I think for certain ballad type songs where I need to ring out chords for the verses one could be useful. For those who use the clean channel of the ethos, do you find that the Ethos can compress enough on its own, or do you rely on another compressor?
