Question Has anyone used a DOD FX-82?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hello everyone!

I have used the DOD Milk-Box (FX-84) compressor for as long as I can remember having compression in my lineup.

Of course I have tried others since, in hope to experiment with other products (as one does), and here is another of those times.

I am looking at purchasing an old DOD FX-82 Bass Compressor pedal. This can be a backup to the Milk-Box, my main compressor, or just something to throw in the closet depending on it's usefulness.

Throwing the question out there: has anyone used it before?
Is it any good for decent compression (enought to make low and high register notes of equal(ish) volume/tone/punch) of a '95 Musicman Sterling (active, with high output)?
I'd just like to know a little bit about it's nature before I go ahead and take it off the market...but I'll probably do that anyway hehe.

All the best with your music!
JOHN.

The Milk Box is far, far better than the FX-82. Check out my reviews for more details.

Haha what a coincidence!

Yes - Ovnilabs, of course. I read your compressor reviews religiously, and reccommend the site to many people!
I went to your site first - and this post is just to get some more opinions on the subject haha.

Cool!
JOHN
