Title: G Comp
Post by: gtangas on June 08, 2014, 01:27:30 AM
Hey guys

Been away for a while...but still making some magic boxes lol

This one is a Ross compressor combined with a mxr noise gate. Internal chain is comp > noise gate
The noise gate and Ross is taken from tonepad. The Ross as some mods taken from fuzz central, one of the mods is the recovery switch, and it was a clean build... Can't say the same thing about the gate... It was a big trouble to make it work properly... But after changing a few things and tweaking it... Mission accomplished

The inside space was a challenge... The Ross PCB didn't help a lot... But job done

That is the second compressor model that I built... The first was a Demeter compulator and now the Ross... Honestly?? Compulator is a winner compared to the Ross
