| Just wondering what the best compressor / sustainer pedal is, or at least the most popular. Of these, I've only used the DigiTech Main Squeeze and MXR DynaComp. Both were quite nice!

| | Hi Dulch! Iv'e used the Digi Squeeze, the Boss, and the MXR Super Comp. The Squeeze is just that, a squasher. The MXR and Boss are pretty similar but I would go with the Boss. It's quieter and has a bit more versatility.

| How does the DigiTech Main Squeeze "squash" it? It does have a setting to really compress the signal, but it also has a sweet sustain setting. It does get a bit noisy when the sustain setting is cranked up, though. I might have to compare it heads-up to the Boss CS-3.

| The BBE Opto Stomp is very nice. I use it for my acoustic guitar rig which also includes the BBE Acoustimax which is awesome.

| JEEZE!  You can't even go by the poll! It's split evenly between the three best ones. Flip a Coin.

| I've been wanting to try out that BBE optical compressor. What's the advantage of an optical compressor? I read about them at one time, but have forgotten the details of them.

| Any additional input on this thread? I think most pedalboards have a compressor of some sort on them...
