I have built dynaComp from tonepad... i like the sustain but together with it comes a lot o noise :oops: ,even alone he is noisy, and when this noise goes to my dist+ it becomes chaotic.... i dont know why so much noise .. i use a metallic box, so do you guys have any idea for me? thanks :D
At what point in the sustain setting does the noise really kick in? I have found once you get past the 12 O'clock setting tends to get noisy, but you should be able to at least get that far. Does it make noise with the guitar volume turned down? You may have sheilding issues with either the comp or your guitar, but keep in mind that comp into distortion is generally a noisy combo, and that a rapid move to your guitar volume knob is often in order ( or quick foot moves to the stompswitch). More info on your setup and settings might help. And don't try using your Dyna-Comp anywhere NEAR a computer monitor.

Make sure you have good cables and whatnot, remember that the compressor is boosting the noise. You might want to consider shielding your guitar but that might be overstepping it... or maybe you could try a gate, but probably not if you want the sustain.
