Dynacomp : The classic comp for CLEAN

3 years ago

Very simple to operate compressor, with a classic sound as heard on numerous recordings.

I don’t like to use it with overdriven sounds as it adds significant hiss to the signal ( I guess by design).

But for clean sounds it adds a certain magic that non of my other compressors do (Keeley, Carl Martin, Diamond).

It is not transparent. It DOES color the sound significantly. But for clean sounds, what a beautiful coloration that is ( in my opinion).

Hence for clean sounds this became my main compressor.
