Behringer CL9 Guitar Stompbox Effects Pedal
Product
Information:
Compress, impress and rock.
Whether it’s a million-dollar hook or a soul-wrenching solo, some
licks are just begging for the compression power of the Behringer
CL9 effects pedal. By pumping up quieter notes and bringing down the
louder ones, this stomp box packages your sound into one smooth,
consistent volume.
Dynamics play an important role in music. They help to convey
emotion, whether it’s a sultry blues solo or the unrelenting gallop
of unfettered metal. But uncontrolled dynamics can take all your
best intentions and turn them into mush. That’s where compression
comes in, softening loud sounds and boosting low signal levels to
keep everything more uniform.
Ever notice how some strings on your guitar or bass sound louder
than others? This is partly due to physics. Strings with lower mass
just don’t put out as much volume as the heavier ones. When used
properly, a compressor makes all of the strings the same volume.
Compressors are also great for slap-style bass players, making thumb
slaps, string pulls and muted notes all the same volume, for an
extremely percussive effect.
Twist the Level to determine this pedal’s overall output, adjust
Attack to give the front end of every strum and pluck added
definition, then dial in the amount of sustain desired. The blue LED
tells you when it’s on, and the high-quality on/off switch maintains
incredible signal integrity in bypass mode. You can power this sound
compactor with either a 9 V battery or a DC power supply (not
included).
