So I bought a compass and it is dead smooth and plays great… The only problem is that it is really responsive… Does the pixel bearing just take a while to break in? Or should I clean it and lube it?

Best to not clean it and break it in naturally as suggested by CLYW.

Play it hard for a few days. I talked with CL about this. My pixel took 4 days, he said some break in in a few hours and other never break in and need to be cleaned. If it’s not better by the 4 th day pull it out and clean it and relive if desired with your own Thin lube of choice.
