    Next we're scoping out the Dyna Comp Mini from MXR. The beloved Dyna Comp has been a studio workhorse since the 1970s. MXR has turned the shrink ray on this classic circuit, giving us a miniature version with even more features than its big brother. The small enclosure size means that it can be crammed into any spare corner of the densest pedalboards for maximum efficiency. The earliest versions of the Dyna Comp contained a vintage metal-can CA3080 IC, which gave the original its vintage tone, as well as greater transparency and a lower noise floor. The Mini version goes all out and supplies that same NOS part, giving mojo-flavored compression without the large footprint. Unlike the original Dyna Comp, the Dyna Comp Mini contains a pushbutton switch labeled Attack that cycles between slow and fast attack times. This switch sets the right amount of swell effect, letting you dip into chicken pickin' territory with the push of a button. The Sensitivity control has a huge range and sets the amount of compression, from a gentle transparent squeeze to a crushing grip. The Output control compensates for any perceived volume loss brought about from higher Sensitivity settings, and can even give your amp a gentle nudge in some settings. Like all MXR pedals, the Dyna Comp is manufactured with a grip of fine components and is built to last a lifetime on the road.

    Old video but still the one that made me buy this pedal last month. Andy is the best at these pedal demos hands down.
    Thanks for all the great work over the years. What a talent you are!

    +ProGuitarShopDemos Andy, how does the noise floor on this one compare to the standard version? I love the tone of my Dyna Comp, but I've been considering giving it the boot and replacing it with the MXR Studio Compressor because it's quite noisy.

      Dyna comps are renowned for having a fast attack time, the attack switch gives the option of a slower attack to let the initial pick attack through

  • @underpressureman
    @underpressureman Před 6 lety +1

    Can someone who own a dynacomp help me? I just bought a dyna comp off someone and the output change is drastic. The compression seems to be working but to keep my dry level the same the output has to be on full. if its at half or even like 3 quarters up, its sooooooo much quieter . and thats no matter where the sensitivity is set! should it be dropping the output that much?

      @WTWASTHAT Před 7 lety

      Probably first. If you run it after your drives, well there's not really much left to compress. Distortion compresses in and of itself. I like to use it before my drives with the volume up to drive my dirt pedals harder.

      @Aaron-zh4kj Před 5 lety +2

      Compression makes your louds quiet and quiets loud. It, as result, gives you more sustain and affects the tone of the guitar, specifically with the attack of the notes. You heard it here first. :)

      @@daveferreira2954 Dan & Mick put it best. Compressor pedal is an overdrive for your clean sound. Your dirty sound already has natural compression from the gain pedals, so maybe that’s why you can’t appreciate what a compressor pedal is doing. The best way to really appreciate a compressor is to get out an acoustic guitar and finger pick with and without a compressor pedal. You will really hear and “feel” its effect.
