COMPRESSOR SHOOTOUT ___ 6 Mini Comps

COMP WARS
NEED TO KNOW
Universal Audio own the original UREI 1176
the King of Comps. They still make them.
Universal Audio also make the Universal Audio
UA 1176 'pedal' that is a dead on clone of
their own UREI. I own it and it is killer.
Most studios use the UA software for a lot
of their work and the same software is in
the 1176 pedal.

The SONICAKE Source Comp is a also a
take on the 1176 as well. It is damn impressive.
At $50,00 USD I recommend it out of all these
mini pedals. Add to that except for the
Donner the others are a lot more money.
So check the video and keep this in mind, 😇

I have owned the full size Wampler, the Keeley, the Xotic SP
& the Donner (made by Mooer. Mooer call it the Yellow Comp
which I have owned since it came out) In short I owned

all but the JHS which is just another MXR Dyna Comp/Ross

clone, and I would buy the SONICAKE 😇

Is it silent -with no extreme settings-? How does it compare to pigtronic PT micro? Could be used as end-of-chain compressor (i mean, headroom is enough to manage high gain -fuzz, rat...- before)?

Improbable. I have found that anytime with any Comp that if I used a Comp post gain I had to use a second one before it with any brand. Also the noise floor is usually unbearable.
