Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I took bender's advice re the route 66 compressor... so if you still want to try different things....

Re: Compressors
The toilet look never bothered me, but the bulkiness did. It’s a shame because the have some great sounding pedals. The Open Road was an awesome sounding OD.Conway wrote:Thanks, but I'm not sure I want a miniature toilet on my pedalboard!jvpp wrote:I took bender's advice re the route 66 compressor... so if you still want to try different things....

Re: Compressors
I've owned a Xotic SP Comp and used it several times. I like it so much cause it's sounds is fantastic.
One of my friend told me that Barber is better than Xotic so i'm thinking to try it.
