Leachr Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 For Sale £80 plus postage Fantastic vintage '76 re-issue compressor, but I didn't realise it was faithful in every detail to the original including the fact that you can only power via 9v battery and not via mains from my pedalboard, which is why I am selling as new! "Meticulously researched and superbly crafted, the MXR '76 Vintage Dyna Comp features the same circuitry used in the original 1976 Dyna Comp, identical in its component layout, silkscreen and handmade wire harness. The key component is the CA3080 "metal can" integrated circuit (IC), which yields quieter operation, greater transparency and increased dynamic range. These ICs havebeen out of production since the '80s, but MXR has tracked down a stash of them—enough to produce a limited run of these little red boxes of compression bliss. The '76 Vintage Dyna Comp "tightens up" a guitar signal, raising the volume of quiet notes and levelling off peaks to create rich, full bodied sustain."

roman_sub Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I would have thought something like this could be used to power it via 9v DC adaptor... https://www.fxpedal.co.uk/accessories-c31/power-supplies-c44/fxpedal-9v-battery-clip-adaptor-p209 GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
