  • compressors bring out the quieter sounds as well as lowering the clips.. pretty much lose dynamics.

    .also having a smooth knee will not make it sound as nasty when compressor in action,

    good explanation

  • thanks! j

  • hey i just bought one of these and i can't seem to get it to do the things that my old compressor did... i know its cuz im not setting it right! maybe u can help, on my old one i had the sensitivity to 100 and output level to 100, thse r th only 2 controls on the old one, i used it to bring the input level of my guitar to the amp up so i don't have to pick so hard in live applications, to keep arm endurance at a max, any ideas on how to use this like my old line 6 one?

  • thank you very much!
