| Re: quick question concerning distortion... I have no need for a compressor for my Big Muff, i only use on if i need to make it less wild without removing some of the sustain. Its nice sometimes, but its not a must at all. |

| Re: quick question concerning distortion... Using a compressor to make it "less wild?" The compressor makes my Big Muff come alive. Before the compressor is clicked on, the Muff sounds kind of dead. When I hit the compressor, it's as if the gain/sustain just tripled.

| Re: quick question concerning distortion... It makes soft inputs louder, loud ones softer, giving a one-level kind of sound but with lessened dymanics. It helps sustain.
