Boss CP-1X Compressor Pedal

Description

here at Just Pedals we love this Boss CP-1X Compressor Pedal.

The CP-1X is a multiband studio-grade compressor specifically made to retain the character of your guitar. Often compressors can heavily colour the sound and remove the dynamic of your playing but the CP-1X has intelligent processing that allows you to still be expressive, whilst controlling and tempering your guitar signal.

Headroom

The CP-1X is an 18v pedal which means you have lots of headroom to play with whether you're using a 7 or 8-string guitar or even if you just have high-output pickups that would push a 9v into a fuzzy mess. Having such a high headroom also means it will work really well with acoustic guitars too, to control your strumming.

Retain Dynamics

This compressor can be used for a few different things If you want the squashed country, chicken-pickin' sound or a bit more control of your rhythm sound bringing up softly picked notes and bringing down heavy notes you can do so. The level control will affect the overall volume of the pedal and the Comp knob will dial in however much compression you want. Making it very easy to retain the dynamics of your playing.

Powered by BOSS’s MDP technology, the CP-1X is a new type of multiband compressor for guitar that preserves the character of your instrument and technique for unlimited musical expression. Intelligent processing analyzes your signal in multiple dimensions as you play, providing advanced dynamics control that never colors or muddies your tone like typical stompbox compressors can. The simple, four-knob interface makes it easy to dial in sophisticated results, while the handy gain reduction indicator always shows you how much compression is being applied. Optimized for all types of guitars, the CP-1X offers next-generation performance for every style of music.

Typical stompbox compressors color and restrict your sound, and are hard to dial in for various playing styles.
