it's all good. i NEVER plug any instrument into an amp without a volume pedal now. i just find it far too convenient to be able to control my levels without having to stop playing to stop using them.
preamps are used to boost the signal of your instrument and add a little 'spice' to its sound. some people don't even use amps for performances instead preferring to run the tone they get from their preamp directly into the PA system.
compressors are effect pedals similar to distortion pedals. they boost the gain of your sound and add an element of sustain. too much will make it sound fuzzy, but that's what most guitarist want hehe. i suppose if you want to pull a nigel kennedy and cover some hendrix you'd want to fuzz out hehe.
is your violin acoustic/electric or just one of those weird looking twirls of plastic (i mean this in the best way possible hehehe)?
