Effect Pedal Dunlop MXR Super Comp

Description:

• Delivers classic Dyna Comp compression
• Attack Level control preserves initial volume without sacrificing sweet sustain
• Compatible with the hottest styles & pickups
• The ultimate source for the “Nashville” sound
• Indestructible, die-cast zinc housing

Power: The MXR M-132 Super Comp uses one 9-volt battery. The battery access is through the bottom of the pedal. The Super Comp uses the Dunlop ECB03 Adapter (ECB03E for Europe), a 9-volt DC regulated AC adapter. Plug polarity is positive on the barrel and negative in the center. Note: Battery must be installed to operate the Super Comp unless an AC adapter is used.

Controls:

• Footswitch toggles Effect On/Bypass (red LED indicates on).
• Output Knob sets compressed (attenuated) output level.
• Attack Level Knob sets the attack attenuation level (highest attack level is minimum attack attenuation).
• Sensitivity Knob sets the compression ratio (highest sensitivity is maximum compression).

Directions: Similar to the historic Dyna Comp, the Super Comp gives one the advantage of being able to have an extended dynamic operating range when dealing with today’s hotter pickups. Before the addition of the Attack Level adjustment, the leading edge of the attack used to be lost (over compressed).

Now, with this adjustment, one can preserve the dynamics of expression while maintaining the long sustain that the historic Dyna Comp provided.

The Output sets the amplitude of the overall effect. The Attack Level controls the compression characteristics of the attack. The Sensitivity controls the dynamic range of compression.
