Caline

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Caline is represented by Pedal Power Supplies, Effect Pedal Kits and Compression Pedals. Current listings include CP-85, DCP-05 Key West Compressor and EQ and CP-82. That makes the range relevant to players looking for pedalboard infrastructure and control. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Compression Pedals

Compression pedals even out playing dynamics by reducing loud peaks and lifting or sustaining the average level. They can make clean picking more consistent, add snap to rhythm parts, tighten bass or increase sustain into an overdrive. Attack and release determine how much pick transient remains; ratio, threshold, blend and output gain control the balance between subtle control and an obvious effect. Compression can also raise noise and reduce touch contrast, so compare the controls and metering with the rest of the signal chain in mind.

Build your own Pedal

Build-your-own pedal products are intended for assembly rather than immediate plug-and-play use. The project may involve soldering a circuit board, wiring jacks and switches, drilling or finishing an enclosure and testing for noise or shorts. Difficulty depends on the instructions and how much is pre-populated. Check the parts list, tools, expected voltage, enclosure work and skill level before starting, and allow time for troubleshooting rather than treating the kit as a finished pedal.

Compressor

Compressor pedals reduce dynamic range by turning louder peaks down and raising or sustaining the average level. Attack and release determine whether the pick transient stays sharp; ratio, threshold, blend and output gain decide whether the result is discreet control or an obvious effect. Compression can add sustain, tighten bass and even out clean picking, but it can also raise noise and reduce touch contrast. Check the gain structure and placement before setting the amount of compression.

Effect Pedal Kit

Effect pedal kits provide a set of parts for building an effects unit, often including a circuit board, components, enclosure or hardware. They can be a useful way to learn how clipping, filtering, gain and switching are implemented, but the required work varies from guided assembly to a full wiring and enclosure project. Read the build notes, check the expected voltage and make sure the kit includes the parts and tools needed for the intended finish.
