Compressor stylish "pro" that is, with all settings at = I / O separate level of damping, compression ratio, attack / decay separated.
+ Noise gate, with level control and decay.,
input for on / off switch at the base. Switch.

note on price and the venerable age.

UTILIZATION

Provided that the parameters mean something to the user, absolutely.
it can also be learned in "stir," but it's true it's not a boost with a single knob.

SOUND QUALITY

Effect of very high quality. Pushed into a corner, can be used for compressor violent attack funky. but rather a quality machine that will allow to balance the sound and give it the sustain while remaining very discreet.
with guitar, it's really a very good compressor.
with voice, it can also improve many things, it's pretty late for this type of use.
I put 10, but considering the price. It's still not the rack studio ... how many €, I dunno, I had a pain there ..

OVERALL OPINION

3 years
+ the sound quality, fine tuning, can footswitch.
the - format, not programmable.
yes, the pedals. That or less, or else frankly a lot more.
Currently: unbeatable. the sound of a super for the price of a sub-crust.
with the same constraints ("money, too much ...") yes.
