signature component of the early
Van Halen sound.

Red Comp is our take on the

classic Dyna Comp stomp box. It is
a simple compressor with fixed ra-
tio, threshold and time constants
(each matched to the original). The
amount of compression is set with
the Sense control. The higher the
value of Sense, the more the signal
is “squashed.”

Red Comp has lots of uses. It is

generally used in front of the amp.
With clean sounds, it can add extra
attack and sustain. Use it in front of
an overdriven preamp to keep
notes in the sweet spot without
spilling over into too much distor-
tion when you play hard.
