I have Red setup on my bike with compact cranks and never have had any issues with this setup but I also do all my own work sounds like OP needs to look for someone with the know how to get it dialed in better. Good luck OP or try learning to do it yourself it may take some trial and error but it's not the SRAM Red that's for sure.
