Compressor Maxon 100% analog.

Powered via battery / 9 volts sector.
True bypass, LED powering.
Between 1, 1 output jacks.
2 knobs sustain / level.
Small pedal a little too lightweight. (Aluminum is not heavy!)

USE

Using very simple!
Level is the output volume of the effect but also acts as a booster.
A 1/3 is equivalent roughly to the volume without effect.
Sustain is defined dose the compression ratio but personally I've never felt acting like a!
I will say that once the effect Switch-on the compression rate is already fixed, sustain Lighten allows compression, but remains very lightweight, the knob is not really very soft!
So basically little rglage, the easiest way is to put all background then meter the volume the amp!

SOUND QUALITY

Sound quality at the rendezvous, Maxon delivers!
As everyone knows, this compressor is quite subtle, with a fairly low compression rate, but really very transparent and musical, no breath.
The first time I Switch-on I heard nothing, I thought it was dfectueux! Actually not at all, we must learn to know, at the same time it is very easy!

I recommend particulirement to play arpge, nails or acoustic.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I possd this compressor for 1 year and then resold for something more versatile.
With the experience I would advise no problem, but do not be surprised the first time that you switch on, it's a pro setup that comes into its own!
