From old MXR advertising literature
“That’s exactly what we’ve
designed the new MXR Limiter to be — a compact and rugged
“no-nonsense” AC-powered signal processor which, for the first time,
gives musicians the same controls found on studio-rackmountable
limiters with no compromise in terms of performance.”
“With electric guitar, bass
or keyboards, the Limiter can add noise-free sustain, punch without
pumping and a more focussed attack. Its state-of-the-art circuitry
makes possible the level of performance you have come to expect from
MXR — smooth, clean sound without the slightest amount of coloration.
The sound of your instrument is enhanced, not covered up.”
“The unit is AC only and it is very subtle and sounded a lot better than the Dynacomp that I used to have before I bought it.”
