From the post
An old school, loud, dirty and sometimes noisy compressor that seems to be inspired by Roland Sustainer. The original runs on two 9v batteries for 18v operation so I included an onboard voltage doubler. It might be a good idea to socket both the LED and LDR to fine tune the the compression.
