Carl Martin Andy Timmons Signature Compressor and MXR Studio Compressor Review

Описание: Jet and Reg take a deep listen to two of the top contenders for "always on pedal", the MXR Studio Compressor and the Carl Martin Andy Timmons Signature Compressor. Compressors are a great way to make you sound more polished and professional. A good one can help your instrument sit better in a mix, whether live or in the studio. A great one can change your world.

They also make it easier to play, giving sustain and making things more controllable and predictable. Used as a creative tool, they can accomplish things no other type of pedal or effect can. Many top players find them absolutely indispensable and wouldn't think of performing without them.

Hear direct comparisons of both of these pedals, as well as a great explanation of compression in an easy to understand way. We'll just bet your board needs one of these beauties!
