Makes sounds ‘bigger’. Use it to level out sounds by reducing peaks and also increasing the quieter parts of the sound. If done properly you can get a fuller sound from your sample or instrument.

Having your sounds levelled out with a compressor also helps with mixing all your sounds together.

There’s a bunch of other uses too but this would be one of the main uses.
