Take this with a grain of salt because I think I just don't like compressors. Had a dunlop MXR block dynacomp reissue that I thought sounded pretty bad. Made me wonder why everyone said the dynacomp is the standard. I've had an analogman bicomp for a couple of years and think it is an improvement but I'm still not in love and it remains off the pedal board. I actually like the OS side better than the ross side. In general, I like the gain, compressors can add but not the noise. I also think there is a fine line from where the squish cleans things up nicely to where it just sounds cheesey.

The new custom script Phase 90 is phenomenol and blows the dunlop block reissue version out of the water. It has me thinking maybe I should give the new custom script mxr dnycomp a try. But then again... maybe I just don't like compressor pedals.
