Value For Money :
Excellent
Good compressor pedal, precisely known. Ultra solid and heavy (MXR what!)
is made to last.
Two settings buttons (the compression rate and volume of output), but effective and with a lot of interactivity. It may take some time to fumble and refine until you find the sound you need ... but we get there!
UTILIZATION
I used it mainly for funky rhythms, arpeggios and (essentially) the slide. In all these uses it is reliable and sounds great, and even surprisingly good with the slide, in clear or slightly saturated. Provided reflect the fact that he tends to "pump" and the sound to distort it a bit, especially when the compression is turned up enough, but it's the fault of just all compressors, it's part of the effect. Just know and adapt his game and its settings accordingly.
While we're in the defects, we can add it produces a lot of breath. It has the charm of the old what!
SOUND QUALITY
The dyna comp is not at all transparent, it has a way of coloring the sound of its own and that is precisely what is cool (even though everyone seems to seek transparency today. As well ask an amp Marshall to be transparent. And then what?)
on the other hand it is not for shredders, because I think it is not made for saturation (that said, everyone's tastes). If you need a compressor to play legato and flowing solos, not clear whether this is the one for you. This is where you'll need something more "transparent".
OVERALL OPINION
I sold it because it was redundant and that I almost used it. But I rather regret that very special color, I repeat, is not at all a fault in my opinion. I'm not a very big user of the compressor, but I still regularly used some models as required (funky rhythmic "slap", slide, arpeggios ...) and this one was very properly the job.
From secondhand, I think it is a good price / quality ratio.
