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 Leveladjust­ment, 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.
