Dyna who?
I was using a Digitech Compressor/Sustainer, and it gave me nothing but a very squished sound, lots of noise, and almost no control over the output level - as a sustainer pedal (even with some noise) it was great, though. I got rid of it about 9 months ago. Around a 2 months ago I got a second hand MXR Super Comp and a new Dyna Comp (they were around the same price). I returned the Dyna Comp and the Super Comp stayed. What a great compressor! Awesome response from the knobs, and it doesn't add as much colour to the sound as the Dyna Comp. I also like the extra Attack Level knob, which provides way more control over my sound. I don't play strats/single coil guitars, so maybe that's why I didn't like the Dyna. As a Les Paul fan to all the Humbucker lovers out there, give the MXR Super Comp a chance to show you a new world! (Unless you own a TC Electronic Hyper Gravity, than you're good already)

Preferable to the Dyna Comp
I have both. This is brighter, louder and the attack knob gives you more control. When faced with a choice between the two, this is the one to go for.


Replaced my Dyna
This replaced my Dyna Comp. I used it throughout Bootleg and Free Rock.

Compressor
I use this pedal for clean sounds, it gives you a balanced sound


Good compressor but a little noisy
Great for dialling in the sound you want. Little adjustments go a long way. Adds some noise into the system, but it does what it's for very well.

Classic compressor
Classic compression for cheap, no true bypass, simple controls. If you expect something more exciting - go for more expensive pedals.

The MXR M-132 M-132 Super Comp Compressor Pedal is an improved version of the legendary Dyna Comp. This is the guitar effects pedal that's the ultimate source for the "Nashville sound." Attack level control preserves initial volume without sacrificing sweet sustain. Sensitivity control lets you dial in just the right amount of compression. The Super Comp effects pedal has a super-tough housing with bypass footswitch and LED.

When it comes to Compression it's gotta be Super
I knew what kind of Compressor pedal I wanted. It was the Ross Compressor but as musicians we all know how much they along with the AnalogMan Compressor pedals cost. So I decided to go with the MXR. I've only had it for about 3 weeks and it's a great compressor pedal. I won't got with another unless AnalogMan gives me one for free. C'Mon Mike!!! \m/ (-_-) \m/
