MXR M102 Dyna Comp Compressor Pedal

The MXR Dyna Comp is an iconic compression pedal that has been a staple of professional guitar rigs for decades. This highly versatile effects pedal gives guitarists an easy way to add sustain to solos, even out volume levels, or achieve a distinctive percussive “click” for clean rhythm tones. The M102 Dyna Comp features two simple controls—Sensitivity and Output—that allow you to precisely control the amount of compression and output level. Powered by a 9V battery or optional AC adapter, this compact yet powerful pedal produces an ultra-clean compression effect with zero noise.

Legendary Sustain and Dynamic Control

The MXR Dyna Comp is renowned for its ability to produce infinite sustain and dynamically shape your tone. It utilizes a proprietary limiter circuit that varies the gain to keep your output signal constant. This allows you to boost your instrument’s sustain without increasing volume. The Sensitivity control lets you determine the threshold at which compression kicks in, while the Output knob adjusts the overall volume level. This simple yet effective design has made the MXR Dyna Comp an essential tool for lead guitarists and rhythm players alike.

Clicky, Percussive Clean Tones

In addition to adding sustain, the MXR Dyna Comp is capable of producing a signature “clicky” clean tone when cranked up. This distinctive sound has been used on countless pop and rock hits. By maxing out the Sensitivity control, the Dyna Comp clamps down on your signal to create a squashed, pulsating tone with a sharp attack. This effect works best with single-coil pickups and a clean amp setting.

Simple Operation and Roadworthy Design

With only two knobs and a compact housing, the MXR Dyna Comp is extremely easy to use and fits comfortably on any pedalboard. It features a durable die-cast chassis, easy-access battery door, and non-slip rubber pad for stable operation. The Dyna Comp’s streamlined interface and solid construction have made it a favorite of guitarists for over 40 years. For crystal-clear compression and a legendary clean tone, look no further than the MXR Dyna Comp.
