Free delivery and returns on eligible orders. Review: Excellent compressor - Boss pedals tend to be viewed with suspicion by many "boutique" pedal fans. However there is a reason why they are the most successful pedal company in history. The design is classic - it's strong, long lasting, and the controls won't ever be moved accidentally by feet. Compression on bass is a very useful tool. Bass guitar has a far greater dynamic range than guitar and swapping between playing styles (fingers, plectrum, slap) causes massive changes in volume. A good compressor can help reduce those volume changes while still allowing enough dynamics to come through. This is a multi-band compressor. That means different frequencies are compressed by a different amount. It allows more compression on the treble sounds while letting the heft of the bass sounds to still have their desired impact. The controls are simple and I suspect there is more going on under the bonnet. I suspect the attack time is being altered internally when the other parameters are being changed. 5 and 6 knob compressors can be very fiddly to dial in perfectly. This is really a 3 knob + volume and it is very easy to dial in. I have maybe 15 different compressor pedals and this one is by far the easiest to set up. It's also the one with the lowest noise floor (hiss) - it's remarkably free of hiss / unwanted noise. There is no low end roll off / cut that many pedal compressors have so the low end (even on a 5 string) is strong and clear. It's an accurate sound and doesn't colour the tone in any way I can tell. It's just compresses. The only downside is battery life. If it's always on then the battery will be spent in a couple of hours. Definitely needs a proper power supply. This is not a surprise though for a multi-band compressor. It's reasonably priced, it's easy to use, it's well designed, and it sounds great. It's also a Boss so it will probably still be working in 30+ years (I have some Boss pedals from the mid 1980s that are still working just fine). Very impressive. Review: Great compressor ! - Simply the best pedal compressor I have ever had ! Works really well and is easy to use.

I have it on a board with a shared power supply, Palmer but boss's own adapter works, as well as many cheaper ones with negative polarization that are available. Any of the multi effects power supplies work fine. It's not heavy on juice. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent compressor *by N***S on 6 August 2020* Boss pedals tend to be viewed with suspicion by many "boutique" pedal fans.
