General

Valeton's CS-10 compressor pedal is a faithful clone of the Boss CS-2 stomp box. Low-input signals are boosted, while high-input signals are compressed, creating a smooth sound with loads of sustain. Place this pedal at the beginning of your effects chain to function as a compressor, or at the end to function as a limiter. Legendary guitarists like Johnny Marr (The Smiths) and Peter Buck (R.E.M.) have used this effect to produce a full, rich sound. The CS-10 stomp box has three controls: a level knob (volume), an attack knob (stroke sensitivity) and a sustain knob. Like all Valeton pedals, this compressor has a durable metal housing.

Valeton

Valeton is an ambitious brand that, after years of developing products for other companies, has chosen its own path. They set themselves apart by offering high-quality reverbs, delays and modulation effects for a remarkably reasonable price, so even musicians on a budget can enjoy classic sounds. Simplicity is one of Valeton's trademarks; each pedal has an easy, user-friendly layout. The stomp boxes are powered by means of a 9-volt battery or adapter.
