A strategically modified Boss CS-3.

With the right tweaks, it can easily
compete with more expensive, and
more highly regarded units.

Just got a DOD Milkbox... the first compressor I've liked. I suspect the 'Hi Ex' knob is what does it for me, it's a touch-sensitive expander on the treble end that makes it snappier and twangier than most comps. It can be noisy at higher comp settings, but light-to-medium squish is plenty for me.

And it's cheap, of course.

On one pedalborad - Analogman Jucier
On the other pedalboard - BBE Bench Press

In the pedal closet (other favorites).....

Dyna Comp (you can't go wrong with a Dyna Comp......it's just a great simple comp)
DOD FX80B
DOD Milk Box
BBE Orange Squash

Someone had to say it......
I use a Keeley two knob Comp

Sherpa · February 19th, 2012, 04:15 PM

AnalogMan Juicer.

Fuzzblaster · February 19th, 2012, 04:28 PM

I'm using a visual sound Comp 66, and the added tone switch is super handy, its a real classy pedal!

zoppotrump · February 19th, 2012, 04:44 PM

I´m using a Keeley 2knob comp with my dr.z maz jr. and a retrosonic comp with my SFTR.
though they are both excellent sounding, the above combination is the best...

soulgeezer · February 19th, 2012, 04:51 PM

Another vote for the DOD FX84 Milk Box (the one with the plain white paint and no stupid labels on the knobs; not the one with the cow graphics and indecipherable knob labels). It's good, cheap, and reliable. A lot of well-respected reviewers claim that it's better than compressors that cost four times as much (e.g. http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/milkbox.shtml). I don't know about that, as I've never spent that much for a compressor. But, the Milk Box does its job and does it *very* well. What more could you ask for?

R. Stratenstein · February 19th, 2012, 04:52 PM

Homebuilt SupaSustain. Sounds great.

I now have two Dyna Comps for sale. The Biyang X 10 is just perfect.

+1 on the Biyang. Super-silent, super-value. Definitely not cheap.

VS RT-66.
Been using one since 2003.

Empress compressor rocks my world.

garytelecastor · February 19th, 2012, 05:13 PM

Carl Martin, Barber Tone Press, and Dyna Comp.
Depends on the gig.

I bought the CM in the 90's and I have never had a
single problem with the electronics. I did have to replace
the chord last fall.

ChipOnly · February 19th, 2012, 07:06 PM

I'm using a seymour duncan doubleback, and I'm a bit surprised, actually. For what I want - moderate added sustain and levelling, without pumping or coloration - I've found the doubleback to be excellent.

I've owned 10 or so comps over the last couple years, and there are some I'd still like to try, but I'm so happy with the SD doubleback that I've ceased my compressor quest. Great sleeper pedal IMO.
