Unfortunately, I was finally able to get the CS3 owners manual, and it says: At it's clockwise position, the attack sound is retained, in each note even in fast picking, creating drive sound. At it's clockwise position, the attack sound is retained, in each note even in fast picking, creating drive sound. Try setting it a 50 to begin with. I'm not really a country player but being from North Dakota you have to have some country chops at the ready in case of emergency or when I do fill-ins with bands that play some of that stuff. I've found that the attack knob is very interactive with the sustain knob, the attack at around noon or one o'clock works well for compressing overdriven leads for me. I'm sure this varies with each player's rig and style. Good luck to you with your CS-3, you'll surely find what you need.

Country musicians for example, who play those awesome chicken-pickin’ or bluegrass kind of licks discovered the benefits of using a stompbox compressor decades ago. The sound of a compressor working its charm over Nashville-inspired playing has become crucial to that specific kind of sound. And for a clean guitar tone with a bit of chorus and reverb, a compressor pedal will do sparkling, lush wonders.http://charlescarteronline.com/images/boss-compression-sustainer-cs-3-manual.pdf Our Beginner’s Guide to Compression article will give you a more detailed overview of compression, how it’s used and the different kinds of compressors. We highly recommend you check it out if you’re new to compression, or even if you just want to brush up on the basics. CS-3 Compression Sustainer Anyone familiar with BOSS’ long-running range of compressors will definitely be aware of the CS-3 Compression Sustainer pedal, a traditional VCA style compressor that has found a home on the pedalboard of many guitar players, including superstars such as David Gilmour, Bonnie Raitt and U2’s The Edge. The BOSS CS-3 is a core part of the BOSS lineup and is an excellent choice for players seeking a traditional compressor tone. Its classic compression circuitry delivers a pronounced attack, combined with smooth sustain, that all work together to even out the dynamic peaks and troughs of your picking. Not restricted to just guitar players, the CS-3 can be used on practically anything you’d like to plug into it. Bassists, keyboardists and synthesizer artists are some of the musicians who still cherish this small blue wonderbox. Electronic artists such as Aphex Twin and Legowelt for example, have also had great results with this classic stompbox. It sounds great on drum machines, synthesizers and other electronic music instruments, or even as an Auxiliary Send on a mixing board for parallel compression. For some musicians though, the audible tonality found within a classic compressor design is less than desirable. Much like different kinds of reverb types (Spring, Hall, Shimmer, etc.) not all kinds of compression are suitable for all musicians.https://www.hagensmarketing.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1626d990ec8040---3sgte-engine-manual.pdf If you like the notion of what a compressor pedal does for your guitar (like the sustain or the overall evening out of your notes and chords), but aren’t completely comfortable with the signature sound of traditional compressors such as the BOSS CS-3, then you might have been considering boost pedals, overdrives or even EQ pedals to achieve similar results. The CP-1X is a new type of compressor for guitar that aims to preserve the character of your instrument, delivering all the benefits of dynamic compression while eliminating the “squashed” sound of a traditional compressor. The CP-1X is unique in its design, as it completely reimagines a compression pedal from scratch. We mentioned earlier that the CS-3 is a pedal that nearly any musician can use. While this is also true for the CP-1X, it is fundamentally a pedal designed specifically for the guitar, and all the expressive qualities that go into playing the instrument. We’ll explain why in a moment, but first, we should give you some background on the pedal. In the quest for a more “transparent” sounding compressor pedal, some manufacturers in recent times have been releasing designs that incorporate a “blend” control, which allows the user to mix their dry, uncompressed guitar signal with the compressed signal. This is a simple workaround method to achieve results similar to the classic studio technique of “parallel compression”, which is often used as a way to compress drums. Sure, adding some dry signal back in will stop the pedal from colouring your tone too much, but of course, it also mitigates much of the actual compression effect itself. So, what if you want a compressor pedal that still does an effective job of dynamic compression, while maintaining your natural tone, as well as complimenting and (more importantly), understanding your playing. The BOSS CP-1X is an entirely new compression design that uses BOSS’ MDP technology.BANGLENHOSPITAL.COM/UserFiles/File/concept-pro-dvr-user-manual.pdf MDP or Multi-Dimensional Processing is a new innovation from BOSS that has been used in previous pedals such as the TE-2 Tera Echo, the MO-2 Multi Overtone, the DA-2 Adaptive Distortion and the “X” series of classic BOSS overdrives and distortions. Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) So how does MDP work. As it turns out, in a really cool way. MDP (and subsequently, the CP-1X) uses intelligent processing to analyse your guitar signal in multiple dimensions, as you play. It listens to each note you play and compresses each one differently, taking into account things like different strings, neck position, single notes, chords, arpeggios and more when deciding exactly how to act on each note. The CP-1X is even able to differentiate the fundamental note of your input waveform vs.Take a look at this diagram: The INPUT diagram shows an uncompressed waveform from a guitar. The blue wave shows the harmonic overtones that come flying off the string as you pick it, which rapidly decay over time. A CONVENTIONAL compressor looks at the entire spectrum of audio information and compresses all the audio at the same rate, in order to bring the total dynamic range into control. In order to bring the (blue) harmonic overtones into control, it has to heavily compress the entire signal, including the fundamental (orange) waveform. This manifests in the note attack, feeling like it is “sucked” away. In the example above, you can see that MDP reduces the harmonic overtones so that the overall volume is under control. In short, the BOSS CP-1X provides advanced dynamics control that never colours or muddies your tone. It’s like you’re plugging into multiple compressors in the one pedal which are doing different things to different frequencies, before blending them all together. Instead of simply “brickwall compressing” your signal, you’re allowing the CP-1X to do its work based on your playing, no matter how sensitive or aggressive your dynamics are.http://ontheedgeofnow.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1626d991c7d1cb---3sge-repair-manual-pdf.pdf This might sound like the CP-1X is working on your tone. Hardly. In fact, the transparency of the CP-1X is incredible. You won’t hear it, but you’ll know it’s there because your guitar sound will become much more apparent. KEEP IT QUIET! The advanced compression delivered using MDP technology is only part of why the CP-1X is the world’s most advanced guitar compression pedal. A common sore point with compressors is that, by their very nature, they will add some noise to your signal during the “sustain” part of their operation. If you’re also using overdrive and distortion, the compressor can add extra noise, in some cases to unusable levels. This of course is combative with a noise suppressor like the BOSS NS-2, but if pedal real estate is a factor for you, then it can be difficult to keep your levels under control. The CP-1X factors this into its design by using a digital circuit for exceptional noise reduction. Combined with multiple interlocking parameters for intelligently adapting to every register and nuance of your playing, the clarity and preservation of tone that the CP-1X brings to your sound is unparalleled. Another nice trick that the CP-1X pulls is, despite running off a 9v battery or power supply, the internal voltage of the pedal is pumped up to 18v. This offers ample headroom for a clean, punchy sound that has enough capability to cleanly deal with guitars used more frequently today like seven and eight string instruments and acoustic-electrics. Essentially, whatever you play, then the CP-1X will work for you. It’s been described as “removing the blanket” off your guitar sound and works comfortably alongside and with your other stompboxes. If you’ve never used a compressor pedal before, then the CP-1X is a great place to start. If you already know the benefits of compression, then it’s certainly a pedal that’s worth checking out. Think of it as a refreshing new take on a classic effect. Classic compressors such as the CS-3 will (and should!http://www.phonefixcomo.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1626d992f70a7d---3sixty1-manual.pdf) always be with us. What the BOSS CP-1X does is take a different approach to a similar goal, opening new doors for creative expression. Whichever you prefer, the choice is at your feet. The technology used in the CP-1X is identical to that used in BOSS’ BC-1X Bass Compressor. The BC-1X differs however, in that it is designed and voiced specifically for bass guitars, as opposed to the CP-1X, which is guitar focused. The BC-1X also sounds great on other instruments.There are, however, some good ideas. Contributed by Roland US Team Plugging. Cookie Policy Contact one of our Audio Consultants for more details.

Another important added value is the quality-price ratio, as regards my personal opinion, obviously. Substantially, it adjusts the mix between the pedal and the original signal. This last must be adjusted directly on the guitar.BANGKOKSOLARPOWER.COM/syner_upload/images/files/concept-pro-cctv-manual.pdf It increases the sustain, but without producing a distortion. Let's explain a thing, to understand better. The main function of a device of this type is the compression of the louder signal, and the boost of the lower frequencies. This means that it can work as a compressor or as a limiter. The manual explains how to produce a different effect according to the selected values, as we can see in the images below. They can be considered a base, or if we want an excercise, in order to understand how to get a good result with the CS-3. It cannot disappoint. The CS-3 price, about 75 euros, is excellent. My personal opinion is that this Boss device is worth more than how much it costs. The Voice knob is useful and efficient, and gives a good versatility. In addition, it is also a cheap pedal. Fundamentally, a good purchase that can be very useful. Certainly, an important added value. It works with 4 batteries or via USB. A good choice for the beginner.

Finn 3.0 out of 5 stars It doesnt seem to give much sustain at 12 o clock and when sustain is cranked the attack gets too punchy and ruins it when my distortion is on. Also the volume seems to go up and down because of the compression but it just does it at the wrong time. Thats a bit inconvenient. It does however make my cleans sound brighter and the attack is decent if dialed down. The pedal isnt tru bypass either. If the volume is up on the pedal to brighten your cleans, youll need to adjust your distortion volume or kick the compressor off before the distortion.but what song gives you time for that. To remedy this just get a volume pedal. I dont claim to be a pro with this pedal at all.I'm playing a Gretsch Jim Dandy with a Gretsch pickup in the sound hole through an amp modeler and into a PA system. I'm very satisfied with what I'm getting. I'm using other peddles in the line, but this one can stand by itself in front of the preamp or amp.highly recommend for a balanced sound live.It does sustain the note and the rise and fall of the volume seems to be lessened. I would not order it again knowing what I know now!It gets the job done very well. You can trust Boss! Go for it!Great sound, works as expected. I went to a music specialty store, the guy behind the counter has one of these and recommended it. They didn't have it so I ordered online. It arrived fast and works perfectly. Love it.Removed the extra noise that my other compressor had. I really like this one.What can I say? I'm a punk guitarist and I live in a block of flats so have to keep my (Marshall) combo down in volume. My Les Paul begins to play itself, even with the amp low. It's also very sturdy as you'd expect with a Boss pedal. Never mind the bollocks here's the Boss CS-3!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again My previous compressor pedal packed up and I replaced it with this. Not disappointed. does exactly what it's supposed to do and is pretty quiet compared to other compressor pedals I have heard. Boss is a great make (I have other Boss pedals which are fantastic).Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again I heard quite a few compressors can cause a bit of a noise but this is so quiet until you star cranking the sustain (and volume which you'd expect) up past about 3 o'clockSorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Expected Boss quality. Sustain not as long as I might like, but I probably expected too much. Noticeably better than my cheaper Behringer sustainer compressor pedal, but then it cost rather more. I would buy this again, but its unlikely I’d need to, great build quality.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Still having a play around with it but it’s fairly straight forward to use, there’s no right way, you just experiment until you’re happy with the sound. And being a Boss pedal it’s as tough and sturdy as a tank!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again It is easily as good as the Vox but with that extra something you expect from Boss. Easily 5 starsSorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Playing without it is like eating a sandwich without the bread.nothing more to say.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Play this with their DS 1 and you can shred like mad!!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again This does exactly what I want. Sure there might be better ones out there, but at this price point I cant complain. Amp quality is good, pedal isn't noisy, and no issues with the dials. Definitely an improvement.

Attack - Controls the attack and release of the CS-3 in opposite fashion: counter-clockwise for fast attack and slow release, clockwise for long attack and short release. Between listening and looking at waveforms, this does seem to be the case. Sustain - This is preamplification of the signal before it passes into the CS-3's compressor circuit. The CS-3 is a fixed threshold, hard knee, high ratio VCA compressor. The CS-3 sound It's punchy and articulate, that's how it's voiced. Chickin' pickin' seems to be a prime example but I think the CS-3, set correctly, can find its place in other styles like technical metal more often. It also does alright holding ambient notes and chords with the Attack down and Sustain up but, again, it still has a sense of punch to each note attack. The tale tell signs of compression are less apparent and it's much more forgiving; The CS-3 needs to be dialed in with more of an end goal in mind. Dialing in the CS-3 Controls at noon, set the Sustain level. The CS-3 has a relatively low threshold, you may need a lower input volume on humbucker guitars. I use a buffer pedal to set a consistent level into my pedalboard. Once I like the amount of squash, I set the attack. Counter-clockwise it will sound softer, it will work with chords and held notes better. Too low and it might feel like it's always gain reducing and you'll lose the feeling of compression and articulation. As you move clockwise, you get more articulation for faster lead lines but the compression sounds more obvious. You can back off the Attack or lower the Sustain to taste; it's a balancing act. Towards full clockwise, the attack and release times can create some modulation distortion (much like an 1176 compressor on some settings). Set level and tone to taste. The CS-3, to my ear, doesn't color the tone but single band compression can thicken it up so you can cut mids or boost highs to compensate. The CS-3's tone control sounds piercing to me when boosting, so I recommend EQ elsewhere. What does this mean practically. It cuts, sounds articulate as heck but could sound pumping or clicky. These days I'm getting nicer results with more modest settings. Zero-ing Attack and Sustain doesn't turn the effect off, so you might find a useful setting there. I also believe you can mod a resistor and change the throw of the Sustain knob so you can dial in more subtle gain adjustments. Is this thing noisy. That seems to be a universal complaint but I chock it up to internet hyperbole. All compressors, the way guitarists use them, will include some makeup gain which will increase the noise floor along with it. If you want a really smooth compressor or you like a lot of natural sounding squash then it fundamentally isn't for you. Because the threshold is so low, it could really benefit from a blend control for versatility.If anyone has a specific request maybe I'll record something. And indeed it may be why some pieces of gear get shit on unfairly. They may not realize that all the controls are highly interactive, or that maybe turning one setting down will make another setting seem like it is way higher, or will interactively change the frequencies that are being adjusted, and so on. Or that maybe gain on low, but volume on high will work better, or gasp the volume and tone control on the guitar might work well. It's kind of like the metal zone.I think the problem is that the message gets lost between the designers and the users. Feels a lot more specific in regard to the sustain control and how to dial in, thanks. It is hard to divine meaning from those manuals, though, considering how hilariously bad the technical writing is usually translated.Would love to hear the pedals and more reviews on other Boss pedals from you. I saw one in a Nels Cline video a while back and figured if he uses one it can't be trash. Seems like a fun guy. I feel like this might turn into an impromptu series, I have a few more Boss pedals I can hit easily. It can get noisy but only on extreme settings. I use a keely but am always willing to try something new, or experiment with compression at the beginning and end of my chain. Just curious if theirs any drawbacks to using it with a lower frequency. Looking at some analyzers, I'm really only seeing bass drop under 20Hz with the pedal on. It sounds fine to me, but all my original advice stands since I don't think the pedal with bass is any more or less flexible than it is with guitar. I think the tone knob is less useful for bass which isn't surprising. This is my main comp. I play a lot of funk type stuff so it’s good for that sound without getting too squishy. Great write up, I’m going to try dialing it in based on your settings later. All rights reserved Back to top.
