Compression - sustainer

Boss CS-3

Description

CS-3 COMPRESSOR SUSTAINER
The CS-3 compresses high-input signals while boosting low-input signals, giving you smooth sustain without degrading the quality of the original sound. 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.

For a mellow sound: this setting is ideal for solos in ballads or mellow songs. Add a chorus effect for even more depth.

For chord work: this setting balances the volume of each string for smooth chord accompaniment.

For thick, rich sounds: add Chorus and Delay after the Sustain effect. This setting is good when playing sustaining chords.
Brand reference number: CS-3

Very good compressor, noticeably improves my sustain once paired with my Boss OS-2. However, a bit difficult to handle on clean.

Excellent on my bass. It works perfectly without the investment in a Rube Goldberg machine.

Not bad, really improves the sustain and makes the notes pop ;) maybe not the best, it breathes if you push it all the way, but for the price I'm satisfied!
