The blend knob is it
I have always used a DynaComp. I got a Boss CS-3, sold it. I got a Keeley Compressor+, also sold it.
This one I'll keep. To be honest, it the DynaComp had a blend knob, I would use it, and only it, but I wanted something more transparent, which the DynaComp, on it's best day, is not.
It's got a great build, strong knobs, nice clicky button and the blend switch is a great function. When it's turned to the blend side, you use the blend knob for a wet/dry mix, when it's turned to the juicy side, it's a constant 90/10 split towards wet. I just set the knob that my choice solo blend, and turn to the juicy side for funky rythm parts. No fiddling around with knobs, I just push it with my foot.

Definitely one of the best Compressor Pedals out there!
Did a lot of research on Optical Compressor Pedals and found a few videos on this one. Every video I watched had great things to say so went ahead and bought it.
Once set up, I turned it on and left the settings as they were out of the box. The difference it made to my clean tone was like Night and Day. Much clearer and really lets the mid frequencies shine through.
Sustain knob really carries.
Balance adjusts the volume nicely without affecting the mix
Didn't notice much with the treble knob but that is probably because I have the mids boosted with a Boss GE-7.
The only thing I noticed with the blend/juicy switch was that the mix went quieter when I switched to juicy so this setting is probably more suited for heavier sounds.
Very pleased with this pedal and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good compressor.
