## Overview

The MXR® Dyna Comp® Compressor is a compact, analog compressor pedal renowned for its ability to smooth out signal dynamics, enhance sustain, and add punch without coloring your original tone.

## Description

The Dyna Comp Compressor is one of the most popular compressors of all time. Whether you want to tighten up your signal, add rich sustain, or create the percussive and clicky sound heard on numerous hit records, this pedal is straightforward and easy to use. For these reasons, the Dyna Comp Compressor has been the secret weapon on countless pedalboards for years.

Review: Versatility and clarity that knows no genre bounds - Compression effects are more commonly heard in country, blues and other similar styles of playing, giving clear definition to notes as well as contributing to the twang and click sounds those genres heavily incorporate. While my style of playing is significantly heavier this pedal still does a lot of work on my rig. With distortion this guy can be used to help mold and even out your tone, allowing for chunky lows and defined leads. I particularly love this MXR model (and all Dunlop affiliated pedals I own) because of the extremely sturdy metal body. While I wouldn't go out of my way to abuse this thing, it's definitely solid enough to survive the constant stress test that is gigging. Regardless of the genre you play I'd highly recommend trying one of these on your pedalboard. Solid build, flexible tones and quite affordable for such a good bit of equipment.
Review: Best Comp/Sust/Boost for the price range... Period! A legend! - This comp pedal is more than just that. It's an awesome compressor, a killer sustainer and a very useful clean boost. Just sparkles my tone. Don't just think of it as a country pedal. It is much more than that. Compared to the Script Dyna Comp, this one is brighter and that's warmer. Personal preference. But considering that one is double the price, this is a no brainer. If I had more money I would get a four knob Keeley Compressor. But, I dont have as much requirement for a compressor and this one does the job well. People complaining about noise issues have a noisy guitar/effects chain. The problem is not this pedal. It is common sense. A compressor picks up frequencies. If your rig is already noisy, it will enhance or bring up the noise signal too. Common sense. So no worries here. Great little sound enhancer. Gilmour and thousands of more guitar gods have used one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice compressor, excellent results
*by F***O on April 13, 2015*

This pedal is great. I've been looking for this sound for a long time and finally got it. Read a lot about compressors before getting it and found this one as a mid price / excelent quality pedal. Compression is not for everybody, a friend who plays really good says compression is for people who don't play well... I've been playing for 20 years and I just love what this does to the sound. Just be sure to know what this does before buying. This can be used with a 9V battery so makes it very portable
