«  Magic with my telecaster »

Published on 06/01/14 at 05:31
Volume control output adjustment blend (mixture thereof untreated and compressed, super useful) a 3 position switch that changes the compression ration (low, medium, high)
4 internal switches to adjust torque attack / release (2 switches -> 4 possibilities), a low pass switch, anti switch peak level

UTILIZATION

It's worth it to open for testing switches settings attack / release and low cut (enabled by default). Once found its settings, is closed: no need to touch

SOUND QUALITY

Plugged my Tele AVRI 52 'Hat, compressor supuer without crushing attacks (with the proper setup switches attack / release). I used compression ratio mid or low. on clean sounds, connected in front of the ep booster, it increases the sustain, faivorise joint phrasing adds "body" to the sound. Crunch is ecstasy: the sustain is multiplied by 10, while keeping the attack for solos, it literally carries the sentences and brings musicality phrasing is stunning, ditto for rhythmic bluesy

OVERALL OPINION

I had tried before a boss and a mooer, it has nothing to see, more than a compressor, it brings expressiveness my game I use it for one month connected to an EP booster of same brand and before attacking the entrance to my TubeMeister: I found the sound I was looking for a long time (especially with my telecaster, less obvious on my MIJ tokai love rock). If you like blues phrasing, raspy, his fender to Hendrix or SRV, it is a treat
