MXR Dyna Comp Deluxe Compressor Guitar Effects Pedal (M228) , Red

MXR

Based on 5 reviews Check latest price

Product description

The Dyna Comp Deluxe Compressor brings unprecedented control to the most iconic compression sound in the history of effects pedals. The original Dyna Comp Compressor has always been more than a utilitarian effect—guitar players have used its percussive tonality to enliven their tones for years. The Dyna Comp Deluxe Compressor’s circuitry and updated control interface delivers that classic sound along with the ability to shape it and season it to your taste. First, this pedal is built around the same CA3080 “metal can” integrated circuit that’s integral to the vintage performance of the script Dyna Comp Compressor and its quieter operation, greater transparency, and increased dynamic range. Next, the Clean control lets you blend your unaffected signal with the compressed signal so that you can find the balance that works for you, and the Tone control allows for further refinement of the compressed signal. Use the Attack switch to toggle between a vintage style slow attack time and a modern style fast attack time. Finally, the familiar Output and Sensitivity knobs control volume level and the length of sustain respectively. The Dyna Comp Deluxe Compressor gives you all you need to make this classic effect support the sound of your rig, from squishy ’70s compression to the open, transparent “light touch” compression favored by many modern players.

  • Classic CA3080 “metal can” integrated circuit provides quieter operation, greater transparency, and increased dynamic range
  • Clean control blends unaffected signal with compressed signal for optimal balance
  • Tone control allows for further refinement of the compressed signal
  • Attack switch toggles between slow and fast attack times

User questions & answers

Question: does it djent
Answer: What is djent?
Question: what is the best choice for a headphone amp if i want rockn distortion and sustain wich
Answer: Im not sure. I purchased this product because it was originally developed by Tom Scholtz of Boston and does a good job of creating the Boston sound. The distortion can set pretty high.....the chorus effects sound great.
Question: This is actually the Tom Scholtz invention
Answer: Yes, SR&D sold the Rockman Ace before Dunlop did. It is very minimal compared to the original Rockman or the X100, but the amp simulation is all Tom Scholz.
Question: is the same as a rockman x
Answer: No, it's not. This unit sounds great, but the x-100 has a few more settings to tweak.
Question: Does this work w a standard guitar cable anr can i use standard earbuds w out an adaptor
Answer: Yes on both counts.
