Marshall ED-1 Compressor
Published on 12/25/02 at 15:00Buoght in Budapest, Hungary, in a famous guitar store. It was 21000FT (90$)
I use mostly the new Marshall stompboxes. I wanted to enhance and improve my solos and the whole sounding.
First, a compressor pedal is the one, that a guitarist adds last to his equipment. Once a beginner said: "this sux, it does nothing!". This pedal is very versatile. Helps to even the volume, adds sustain or cuts the lenght. Must have for funky riffs, ideal for jazz, blues. Virtually I'm influenced by Kirk Hammett, so it helps a lot, and gives a boost for those rapid ass kickin' solos.

Marshall pedals only problem: black marks on chrome knobs. On stage I cant see the settings. It's hard to set each effects to avoid being noisy. But it's a natural thing at using a compressor. By the way Boss's compressor is much more noisy.
Metal. Bypass swithch. Awesome.
I like this product. I'm playing for many years, but it improves my solos, evens voulume, adds something that brings out everything from my gear. This is the best compressor pedal you can get this time, and its price is o.k. as well.

Excellent pedal

- Attack: is the "sustainer" that emphasizes the attack of its product (the "beginning of his"
- Compression: level of "crash". I do not like that word which might seem derogatory, but simply means that the sounds of low intensity will be re-raised, and those of high intensity lowered, so as to produce an overall sound more even.
- Level: sound intensity that passes through the pedal, useful for adjusting the volume pedal between active and inactive
- Emphasis: it is a bonus. It is a priori whether the compression is more pronounced on the bass or treble.

My basic setup:
- Attack at 3
- Compression at 9am
- Level at 11
- Emphasis on Hi
If I really want to accentuate certain notes, I increase the compression. Attention, increasing the compression increases the breath.
I place the beginning of the pedal board, making it much more natural end of a chain or crush it all.
Pedal will not make sense for a beginner, but is essential to the more experienced musician. Personally, it is almost always on ... but with sparse settings.
Input / output jack, power supply 9V Boss style (battery or mains), heavy and solid (all metal), a bit narrower than the Boss pedals.
She has what it takes, no less.
UTILIZATION
Understanding compression is inherently difficult, so I will not penalize the pdéale for that. It's easy for me, except perhaps to understand the emphasis that is not me really.
SOUND QUALITY
A compressor pedal always blows (except the super expensive), but this without any excess, which it seems it apart from its competitor the CS-3. That's what decided me.
The compression does not alter the sound (except for the compression itself) that is natural in both clean distortion.
Used with a Gretsch, it gives the slamming my TV Jones
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a few days, but I've been dealing with compression in a multi-purpose. It has nothing to do because of poor quality compression gives the breath and makes his "phone" what i is not the case here.
Strong, effective for a reasonable price. Perfect for me.See less50 - KalamoPublished on 08/22/03 at 17:39 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Compression and high-performance hot: a must!

Finally that is a very good compressor, especially by its qualities and its price (75 euros). I have try 3 tablespoons of boos and I love him not.

It is the pedals that I score points in my opinion. I use a 50W all-tube amp Fender Hot Rod Deluxe type and a semi-hollow ES 335 Samick.

The compression ratio is more than enough for the pedals can move too discrte Submitted. I really love. I use it rarely disto, o it is that the added sustain and harmonics (I get not even use it as a booster, a hand if it is the place APRS distortion but the sound is too flat and does not suit me).
I compare the Boss CS-3 that I did not like because too discrte, the effect is too subtle it was not enough.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall opinion: Satisfaction 100% sound.
Other important points: The good quality bypass trs (buffer that preserves the incoming signal), the solidity of the can (while mtal, heavy), and its price in the middle (about 80) .

SOUND QUALITY
- Effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
The compression is very effective, although increases my pick attack, I love. on the other hand I find it a lack of intensity distortion with a little push.
- Which instruments do you use?
For now I've tested it with my Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus with my Marshall Valvestate 8080, also with a DS-1 and a Small Clone
I do not put that 8 because of the lack of impact on distortion. M'enfin is good to quibble a bit more than anything else ...
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
Hmm I would say two weeks now
- What is so special that you like most and least?
I love potato adds that when I play, I like when a pedal does its job, this is the case then I'm happy!
What I like least is the chrome buttons. It's super class, it will look good with a little vintage mister Edward but against any days you do not see the small level indicator above. This is unfortunate but it is good of the order detail.
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
No! I bought a chorus on the net and saw this little pedal on the site, I broke down Since I wanted a lil spice up my compressor to sound.
- How would you rate the quality / price?
For less than € 60 I think it's great! The case is sturdy (similar strength as the Boss), the sound is good, not much wind, and easy to use, that you ask for?
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
I have found nothing better as a compressor for the price (at the same time I did not look either!) Maybe with more finances would have more of the more upscale, but for now, is still a novice of the handle 6-string, I will not hesitate to take a sudden if mine was more in my pedalbord.See less20 - theedge73Published on 10/09/10 at 13:29 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Guitar Compressor
