From the post
From John K. Info about the original:
This compressor captures the natural feel of your amp and speakers compressing as they are pushed.The PGC really shines in a live situation with a band where the heavier handed compressors, that sound good at home in a room, often sound thick and lifeless against other real instruments… … The PGC is already famous for its nearly transparent compression and dead quiet operation. You will also wonder if its on at all ~ until you turn it off to make sure and then turn it back on as quickly as possible.

Check before you build · 3 values the reader of this layout was not sure of
- 215R top right: printed clearly, unusual value
- LDR / LED: legend 'LDR: NSL32, Green LED' is ambiguous (NSL32 is itself a LED/LDR optocoupler); the board draws a separate LDR and a green LED, entered as two rows
- IC printed only as 5534, entered as NE5534
