Title: route 66 compressor ?
Post by: neve1272 on February 07, 2014, 11:40:19 PM
i had my friends route 66 in to fix a broken foot switch(its a overdrive/compressor dual pedal)

and i gotta say that the compressor is really cool can anybody tell me about what it is or similar?
the only compressor i own is the black finger EHX and it sounds nothing like this

I think that's one RG designed. I'd bet you'd get some info from him at DIY Stompboxes.

See a lm13700, I assume it is a updated Ross compressor using an lm13700 instead of a ca3080.

I have built Merlin's Engineers Thumb which is based on the LM13700 and it is great.

Engineer's Thumb has all the tones of a Ross with about 15% of the noise. Recommended.
