Re: Dyna Comp or Micro Amp

Sweetfinger	Re: Dyna Comp or Micro Amp I'm not sure of your question. The Dyna-Comp is one of the early compressors, perhaps not the best but the classic standard to which others would be compared. The Micro-Amp is just a signal booster, with a certain "coloration" to the tone. I can't even play now without going through a MA. It is the basic part of my rig. I've built several and one was especially magical(don't know why). Since it is easier, I'd start with the MA. I'd probably just buy the Dyna-Comp.
