BOSS CS-2 CS-3 Compression/Sustainer

[vincenzomauer88]

CS-3 is just a sterile. It has more volume on tap as shown in this video. The CS-2 is king for me. Nice, full, balanced sound. I think the tone stack on the CS-3 favors certain frequencies so you have to choose where you need it most vs. the broad spectrum of the CS-2.

I had a CS-2 over 20 years ago: I couldn't give it away - Now I'd pay silly money for one!

both are pretty good but I think that the cs3 is a little more agresive than cs2 which good for the cs2 cause it sound more musical, warm, I stay with cs2

I regret selling my CS-2 a while back...I'm about to purchase another one in even better shape! Woo!

[KingTabor]

@cpage07 I had one that I sold also... @regret

CS-2 sounds as good as Keeley or any other high-end compressor IMHO

@showzi666 Congratulations for the video, it's a good comparacion.

What cables and mark his are you using in the pedals?

Thanks

The CS-3 sounds brittle compared to the warm, full sound of the CS-2. Plus, if it's good enough at $100 to be used as Gilmour's comp live and in the studio for almost ten years, it's good enough for me. Great demo!

@joshie4330 Hello!!

CS -2 makes a warm sound with a fat.

Though it is an old model, I hear a good sound.

Thank you for comment!

cool demo....but i still cant decide which one sounds better. Most people say CS2 sounds better. What do you think?

[showzi666]

@StratLM　Hello.

I think that the sound that CS2 has better sounds so that many people say.

I think that it is for warm sound, deep sound.

I like sound of CS2, too.

Thank you for comment.
