Modding A Cheap Compressor (Behringer Autocom MDX1000) 

Nice i got the OT1 transformers in my autocom and two peq's definitely improved its output signal

Ive got 2. early models have a clone chip and later serials dbx chips inside. Cheap useable comps

I recently purchased a used MDX 1200 from Guitar Center for $60. Much to my surprise, it arrived in mint condish. This was my second way back then, my first was a DBX 163 to which i lost my virginity but in my defense I was drunk and emotional.

BEFORE 5:42 6:20 Bass 6:37 7:35 Kick 8:16 Room AFTER 5:49 6:25 Bass 8:22 Room DBX 9:44 9:52 Bass Terrific modification and result! Loved it. I am inclined to buy Behringer gear now. Hehe.

This comp is really good already out of the box. I rebought one, after listening to an old track I recorded through it 10 years ago. It's really clean and smooth. Crazy, you can get them for 20-40 bucks used. Would you still do the mod or let it as it was ?

Awesome mod! Can definitely hear it really adding in some warmth in the low mids. Nice to see the 160 comparison in here too. Good vid man!

Hello thank you so much for this tutorial / explanation of how to do testing on these types of compressors. Best one I've seen with realtime GUI and analysis. About to get the dbx analog 166 over easy compressor and maybe this. Do you have available on your website, your test tone samples for help configuring my own equipment. I'm just starting to learn about mixing for bass

How did you send/receive these signals from your compressor to your audio interface/pc by the way? Did you use mixer? Thank you

you need to find a BE 2082 1:6 distribution amp ot-1 transformers the real vintage one's i installed them on my Behringer T1952 Tube Compressor and i change's the cheap crappy tubes with vintage Telefunken tube and OMG that thing sounds like a 1000+$ compressor.

Seriously can't edit a video it's out of sync 🤣
