Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the Rocktron Big Crush Compressor Pedal. The Big Crush Compressor pedal has been specifically engineered for low noise and super long sustain without tone compromise. Unlike other compression pedals that can effect your tone and "fuzzes" as the signal decays, the Big Crush will ring on. Great for today's modern guitarist using 7-String guitars or guitars with super heavy gauge strings - the Big Crush will allow all notes to be heard in their true glory. The Big Crush is built into a super tough road worthy extruded aluminium chassis. This pedal will stand up to the abuses of time and road wear and tear. The easy access battery compartment will make changing batteries during a gig a breeze. We have also equipped it with a super bright blue LED so you will know when the pedal is on. . . it is also just plain cool! Connection 1 2 Level Control - Adjusts the output of compression. Attack Control - Adjusts the amount of delay before compression occurs. Active LED - When lit the pedal is "active" or "on" Sustain Control - Adjusts the amount of dynamic range limiting. Output Jack - Using a standard guitar cable with a 1/4" jack, plug into the input of your guitar amplifier or next stomp box in the signal chain. 3 4 5 Bottom Left Side Right Side 6 On/Off Switch - This switch determines whether the pedal is "active" or "bypassed" - When "active" the blue LED will be lit.

Always remember to unplug your guitar cords from the pedal to conserve battery life. [. . . ] The Big Crush Compressor is ideally suited for many different types of music. By adjusting the various controls you can achieve lusher and richer sounds when combined with other effects such as chorus and flanger. By adjusting the "sustain" control you can help all the strings become clearer and more distinct. [. . . ]
