I bought this to free up space in place of a CS-2. I was a bit sceptical due to the simple layout and fewer knobs but I couldn't be anymore wrong. I have this on all the time and set and forget. the attack knob is interesting and opens up a bit more customisation. built solid as a rock and come with a wall wart too. I don't think I will ever replace this comp.
It's not one of those squashy in-your-face compressors, it tends to act more like a big amp with a little volume, hence some natural compression.
Which is good, don't you think?
Also very effective as a clean boost.
Not a big fan of the fast-attack switch, but it's cool to have it.
great
sound is good, but after couple weeks the light couldn't be turned on anymore
and its probably surface mount parts, so not fun replacing a faulty diode :-(
