Alligator Compression
When I first starting playing guitar, I had no idea what a compressor did. When folks tried to describe it to me, it seemed kind of vague and I really didn't get what they were saying.
Years later, I have a home studio and now compression is a huge part of every recording I do. While I have plug-ins to do so online, a often reach for the MXR Dyna Comp Compression Pedal when recording guitar or bass.
The MXR pedal is the standard compression pedal. It's the alligator of the pedal world--it has been designed so simply and perfectly, that like the alligator, it doesn't need to evolve at all. It works for what it needs to do.
Also like an alligator, the MXR can clamp down on your sound with its attack and keep it in check. While compression is useful in small doses to keep the guitar sound at an even volume, after playing around with this pedal you'll soon realise that the compression can alter the tone, and in fact that way you play the guitar as well. You can get nearly endless sustain, or crisp, clean tones that cut through the mix.
I've had my pedal for a while, and it still works beautifully. A compressor is an integral part to any performing or recording lineup. Check one out and play around a bit and you'll see what I mean.

A Classic
This is obviously a classic pedal. If you're into classic rock or the crunchy warm tones of a lot of the 70's rock, this is pretty cool.
It is a bit of a niche product. Depending on how you use it, it can be noisey and can sound kind of crappy. But with careful adjustment of the amp and pedal, there are some real sweet tones to be had.
I can see why you'd love it or hate it. Either way, it doesn't pretend to be something it's not. It's simple, classic and I like it.

The original, still the best.
Simplicity sometimes breeds the best results. I have tried many other compression pedals. No-matter how many I try out they still can't match the great tone of the Dyna Comp. I plugged my strat and Les Paul in to it and it suits them both perfectly. Go ahead and buy one, you know you want to!

MXR M102 DynaComp Compressor
For the price range under $100, it is the best compressor pedal out there. I loved it!! I was going for a Ross compressor sound and this pedal delivers.
The only bad thing about the pedal is alot of background static when it's turned on, but the crisp tone it delivers makes up for it.

Dynamo!
I looked at just about every compressor pedal out there and I still came back to the Dyna Comp. Face it guys and gals, MXR wrote the book on Phase Shifters and Compressor Pedals. This is the true old school sound. plain and simple. I know there are some high dollar pedals out there, I've played em. But nothing beats the original "King Daddy" of compressor pedals.
