Onboard EQ delivers precision tone control and a special internal design insures outstanding low-noise performance. A range of effects from gentle compression to “squeezed” sounds is at your command. Designed for outstanding low-noise performance, the CS-3 also provides EQ for precise sonic control. Add a chorus effect for even more depth. (Fig 1: Level 5, Tone 2, Attack 6, Sustain 6) For chord work: This setting balances the volume of each string for smooth chord accompaniment. (Fig 2: Level 5, Tone 6, Attack 2, Sustain 4) For thick, rich sounds: Add Chorus and Delay after the Sustain effect. This setting is good when playing sustaining chords. (Fig 3: Level 5, Tone 6, Attack 5, Sustain 8). When used for specific genres, they suit some players perfectly. 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. 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.http://www.libit.it/public/bose-sl2-wireless-surround-link-manual.xml 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. 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.http://eco-region31.ru/4-speed-manual-el-camino-sale 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. 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.https://climatechange-news.com/images/boss-compressor-manual.pdf 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. 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.https://sk-developers.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1626d9bca3cb5d---3vcs-manual.pdf 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!) 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.AYTEKINPOLATEL.COM/image/files/canon-ipf6000s-manual.pdf 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.From the classic analog delay of the DM-2 Delay, to the world’s first digital delay.

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.

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.AYNADAKIKEMALIZM.COM/resimler/files/canon-ipf600-service-manual-pdf 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.

Within a few seconds of turning a Rotary Screw on, you have full volume and pressure. If you run a rotary screw like a Piston Compressor you will not burn off the moisture inside the screws causing performance problems. If you like to cycle your compressor on and off all day, please think a Rotary Screw through before purchasing. You do not need an air tank with a rotary screw compressor. If you use an air tank, you may hinder performance if not installed correctly. Call 800-824-0622 for more information on compressor rebuilds.

Capable of serving bright, punchy attack that barrels through a mix thanks to the pedal’s construction on photocouplers, the CS-1 can put that bright twang needed for a country tune or added presence for soloing. In the CS-1 this is done by using photocouplers. The later CS-2 and CS-3 used VCA’s (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) to create the same effect. The sound of the CS-1 is thus very different from its successors.

Therefore with your experience and common sense, you are in a position to ensure your safety. Lack of attention to safety can result in: accidents, personal injury, reduction of efficiency and worst of all - Loss of Life. Watch for safety hazards. Correct them promptly. Use the following safety precautions as a general guide to safe operation: Do not attempt to remove any compressor parts without first relieving the entire system of pressure. Do not attempt to service any part while machine is operating.Periodically check all safety devices for proper operation. Do not play with compressed air. Pressurized air can cause serious injury to personnel. Exercise cleanliness during maintenance and when making repairs.Do not install safety devices other than authorized BOSS INDUSTRIES replacement devices. Close all openings and replace all covers and guards before operating compressor unit. Tools, rags, or loose parts must not be left on the compressor or drive parts. Do not use flammable solvents for cleaning parts. Keep combustibles out of and away from the Compressor and any associated enclosures. The owner, lessor, or operator of the Compressor are hereby notified and forewarned that any failure to observe these safety precautions may result in damage or injury. These decals must be affixed to the vehicle after it has been painted, trimmed, and undercoat, etc.The decals shall be placed so as to be clearly visible to the user and service personnel.

CFM - Refers to the volume of compressed air being produced expressed as cubic feet of air per minute. LOAD CONTROLLER - Sometimes referred to as the engine speed control. OIL SUMP - The first stage of oil separation from compressed air. Also serves as reservoir area for compressor lubricant and sometimes referred to as the receiver tank. PSI - Refers to the operating pressure the system is set up at, expressed as pounds per square inch. SAFETY VALVE - A valve located on the oil sump which opens in case of excessive pressure. Sometimes referred to as the pop-off or pressure relief valve. SHUTDOWN SWITCH - Works in conjunction with a temperature and pressure switchgauges, sending a signal to stop the compressor power source in cases of high temperature or pressure. SIDE MOUNT PTO - Power take off gearbox that bolts to the side of the transmission. The PTO input gear with one of the gears in the vehicle’s transmission. The rotation developed by the engine drives the transmission which turns the PTO gear box and rotates the PTO output shaft, driving the compressor. ADAPTER GEAR ASSEMBLY: SIDE MOUNT PTO - The adapter gear assembly and the side mount PTO are assembled to the side of the transmission. Typically a PTO box installed on a manual transmission will require an adapter gear assembly in order to obtain the proper engine rotation required by the compressor. Most automatic transmissions utilize engine rotation PTO’s. Consult Boss Industries Inc. Components include a housing (stator), two screws (rotors), bearings, and bearing supports. Power from the engine is transferred to the male rotor through a drive shaft and gears in the gear housing. The female rotor is driven by the male rotor. There are four lobes on the male rotor while the female rotor has five roots. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION In operation, two helical grooved rotors mesh to compress air. Inlet air is trapped as the male lobes roll down the female grooves, pushing trapped air along, compressing it until it reaches the discharge port in the end of the stator and delivers smooth-flowing, pulse-free air to the receiver. During the compression cycle, oil is injected into the compressor and serves these purposes: 1. Lubricates the rotating parts and bearings. 2. Serves as a cooling agent for the compressed air. 3. Seals the running clearances.
