MXR CSP028 '76 Vintage Dyna Comp

Analog compressor; reissue of the original 1976 model.

UTILIZATION

Two buttons: a volume control and adjustment of the compression intensity.
Easier, it is not possible!

SOUND QUALITY

Great effect.

OVERALL OPINION

This reissue is perfect. Moving immediately the false problem of the lack of socket for external power supply: in the 70s, the pedals are powered by battery, period!
Besides the effect of compression itself, efficiency and exceptional musicality, this pedal offers incredible sustain. Coupled with an overdrive or distortion, one can easily get an infinite sustain with a guitar equipped with humbucking pickups.
Note that the Dyna Comp appreciate to place before distos.
With a Big Muff, the couple provides a very similar to that of Robert Fripp of King Crimson history (71-75) sound.
On clean sounds, it magnifies the modulations and does wonders associated with a good chorus and a delay.
A great success!

SOUND QUALITY

Immediately you feel you are in the Vintage was a signature sound, the return of the dynamic really changes, it is more sustain with this small seed very special, I think it adds a little more old school curtain that is very nice, I think the fans of modern rock will probably not like
I think the games slide, picking country, bluesy riff and funky casseroles are sublimated, it's hard in the off after that, the sudden she's always turned on in my pedalboard unavoidable, dirt pedal will .... P

OVERALL OPINION

I had before Carl Martin Compressor, which is fine but I think most studio ... but this is good I found my pedal Comp for a while, then it is true that the price may calm down over a nine to 180 € it's clear that this is an especially hot certe handmade pedal but almost transparent ... for me the comp is like reverb or noise gate essential
For info pedal used by Lenny kravitz and his sidekick Craig Ross ... for the fans
