Signal Specifications: Nominal Input Level: -20 dBu Standard for guitar-level input signals. Input Impedance: 1 M ohm High impedance suitable for guitars and other high-impedance instruments. Nominal Output Level: -20 dBu The level of the output signal. Output Impedance: 1 k ohm Compatible with most amplifiers and effects pedals. Recommended Load Impedance: 10 k ohms or greater Ensures optimal performance with a wide range of amplifiers and signal chains. Bypass: Buffered Bypass: Keeps the signal intact and clean when the pedal is turned off, preserving the original tone of your instrument. Controls: SUSTAIN Knob: Adjusts the amount of compression. Higher sustain will make quieter notes louder and louder notes quieter. ATTACK Knob: Controls the speed at which compression kicks in. A fast attack compresses quickly, while a slower attack lets transient sounds (like pick attack) through. TONE Knob: Shapes the tone of the output signal, allowing you to adjust for brighter or darker sounds. LEVEL Knob: Adjusts the output volume of the compressed signal to balance with the bypassed signal or set the desired loudness. Power Supply: Battery Options: Carbon-zinc 9V battery (6F22). Alkaline 9V battery (6LR61). AC Adaptor: PSA series (sold separately). Current Draw: 20 mA — Low power consumption for extended battery life. Expected Battery Life: Carbon-zinc: Approx. 10.5 hours of continuous use. Alkaline: Approx. 26 hours of continuous use. Indicators: CHECK Indicator: Lights up to indicate low battery or when the pedal is engaged, helping with battery management. Connectors: INPUT Jack: 1/4-inch phone type for connecting your instrument (guitar or bass). OUTPUT Jack: 1/4-inch phone type for sending the compressed signal to your amplifier or other devices in your signal chain. DC IN Jack: For connecting an external power supply (PSA series AC adapter). Accessories: Included: Leaflet with safety and usage instructions. 9V carbon-zinc battery (6F22).
