TThe MXR Dyna Comp is one of the most popular compression pedals ever made. Its simplistic 2 control layout and great results made it an instant hit on the pedalboard of home players and pros alike. Now they have created a new Script version with an upgraded IC, which provides quieter operation, greater transparency and increased dynamic range.

Small but Mighty

The Script Dyna Comp like the regular Dyna Comp that came before has a simple set of two controls. The output which sets the overall volume level of the pedal meaning you can actually boost the volume of your guitar using this pedal and the sensitivity control. This acts as your compressor threshold and ratio in one, but in general the more you turn it up the more compressed your signal becomes.

Here’s what MXR say about the Script Dyna Comp Compression Pedal

The Dyna Comp Compressor is famous for its first-rate, no-nonsense approach to tightening up your guitar signal and creating rich, full-bodied sustain. Like the Phase 90, this little red gem is a legend among its kind. The pedals produced in the mid-’70s are particularly prized for their unique sound and performance.

The Script Dyna Comp Compressor combines that old school sound with a couple upgrades for modern gigging convenience. Spec’d from our own 1976 Dyna Comp Compressor, this pedal is built around the rare CA3080 “metal can” integrated circuit (IC), which yields quieter operation, greater transparency, and increased dynamic range.

Thanks to its bypass status LED and AC power jack, you can put this pedal right on your board without worrying about whether the pedal is on or about to lose power.

MXR’s first product was the Phase 90, released in 1972. Dunlop’s official MXR history traces the early line from that compact phaser to the Distortion+, Dyna Comp compressor and Blue Box octave fuzz—circuits that remain central reference points for the brand. JustPedals carries those classic families alongside the Carbon Copy analog delay, Micro Amp, Talk Box and bass effects. MXR’s range is deliberately broader than one effect category: compare the model number and version, especially where a classic circuit has later reissues, mini enclosures or expanded controls.

Compressor Pedals

Compression reduces the difference between louder and quieter parts of the signal. It can restrain peaks, lift decaying notes and make picking feel more even, but strong settings also change the attack and add audible sustain or pumping. Threshold, ratio, attack, release and blend determine when gain reduction begins, how firmly it acts and how much natural transient detail remains.
