kasi sabi sa reviews, forgot where i read it.. sbi mas tahimik daw ung dynacomp compared to cs-3.. and ung cs-3 daw mdyo inaalter na nya ung tone e.. ndi na daw orig.. haha
and kng nag cs-3 ako, diba parang doble gastos.. hahah kasi bibili pa ko ng NS.. heheh..


ALL compressors ALTER your tone. that's why i never was big into those things. if you can live with this "coloration" of your tone, then good for you. I can't. Same reason why is stay away from multifxs as much as i can. Having a few stompboxes and good patch cables so far has not been able to color my tone that much that i can live with it.  But again, if i can have a dynacomp cheap, i wouldn't mind getting one to toy with it.

i think you;ll have enough sustain na with an overdriven signal :) pag tapat mo lang guitar sa amp hehe..mas warm lang tunog ng guitar pag naka comp..minsan parang tunog pigil..pero oks lang..

nakatabi lang comp ko ngayun..di ko pa nalaro masyado.

Can't wait to get mine.  Dunno if it's the best though, but it surely is quieter than a Dynacomp...

I have a bunyok modded cs-3. I got it modded already so I can't compare. Add's a bit of color naturally and I find it useful specially the way it sustains. Based on reviews I was quite impressed with the Demeter Comp-1 Opto Compulator and the Keeley :-)

Nagkaron ako ng cs-2 before and honestly wala akong narinig na sustain if there is any.

  Nakatry ako sa studio ng digitech main squeeze, and then noon ko lang na-appreciate ang mga compressor stomps.

  Ang tagal ng sustain ng digitech . u can even use it for chicken picking.
pwde rin sa lead guitar parts.

Find someone who can make this with good components. The Keeley and GoudieFX compressors are both based on this one.

BAMF would be someone you might want to consider asking!!  :lol:  :lol:

ahh yeah the rosscomp.

Okay. Check out this soundclip. I can hear the difference, the modded CS3 sounds more crisp than the rosscomp/keeley.
