anyway, back to compressor. Just heard from da boss, misse. The RMC FK-1 compressor will be in together with the wah stock. So anyone looking for comp, can check that out

Nice... didn't know he was going to bring that in to, I will want to test it out.

There's the BJF compressor too... thats apparently something, and the descriptions seem to fit what I want/need, a little pricy but nothing some saving will solve.

Just realised, that I don't want a comp that squishes (like a Ross) but something along the lines of these opto comps.

Ah well.

YA. Like, 3 Boss pedals huge. If I didn't have that I'd be able to fit so much more stuff on my board but I can't let it go

Ah well.

The citrus is an opto comp .... they are nice at the end of the line.
The Ross / Dyna never worked for me ...too sucky 8O

 

[gsonique]

or just the opto comp without booster

The Citrus also does quite an amount of boost or cut...
and wonderfully noise free .. :wink:

 

[PatheinRaindropMoe]

is the citrus for release? I love to check it out

 

[gsonique]

check your pm

 

[edder]

if diy-ed you may wanna make it swithcable between a small bulb and LED.

cheers,

uhm... is that a good thing or bad? hur hur hur~

 

[ShredCow]

Ooo.. the citrus looks good... placed at end of the line is very interesting! I wonder how it fares in terms of transparency... will do some research.

EHX White Finger is affordable no?

The BJF one is really bringing up the GAS though...

I just want the compressor to have more of an even-ing-out effect, rather than a noticable lap-steel squish.

I dislike it, that on clean, the thinner strings never have enough body/volume to match with the booming bass strings. Its irritating, hence, I seldom record clean.

With my Randolfed CS-3, it always has a slight lap-steel volume effect, unless the compression is set reaaaallly low, which isn't enough to even out the volume. It also releases too quickly for my taste.

Tried the MXR Dynacomp, some old, script thing, and didn't like it. I see its use in jazz/blues (tone wise) but nope, not going to work for me.
