COMPRESSOR
Welcome
to a new era of ROSS pedals. After countless hours of painstaking
research and design, this pedal brings you the story, legacy and sound
that made the original ROSS brand a timeless staple for guitarists and
collectors worldwide. Featuring five classic ROSS circuits, this series
offers something for every player. Each pedal is manufactured in a
classic ROSS enclosure style at the JHS Pedals facility in Kansas City,
MO, using the same stringent quality standards you’ve come to expect.
Notable improvements over the vintage units include soft touch bypass,
lower noise and a mode switch with two settings for added versatility.
The
ROSS Compressor is an OTA-based, vintage style compressor. This is a
faithful reproduction of the coveted “Era 2” Gray Box ROSS Compressor
circuit. Possibly the most legendary and hyped compressor of its kind,
we are excited to bring this design into a new era.
CONTROLS
“Level”
controls the volume (right is louder, left is quieter). “Sustain”
controls the amount of compression/sustain (right is more
compressed/sustained, left is less compressed/sustained). When
activated, the side push switch toggles between two modes: Standard and
Bright. The Bright mode helps your guitar cut through the mix when you
need a little extra clarity for darker pickups or amplifiers. The
footswitch activates the pedal via soft touch bypass switching and the
status LED indicates that the circuit is active.
JACKS
The
¼” input and output jacks connect your guitar and amplifier. The power
jack accepts standard 9V DC Negative Center power and consumes 37mA.
this pedal requires 9V DC NEGATIVE CENTER. 37MA CONSUMPTION. DO NOT USE MORE THAN 9V DC, OR YOUR WARRANTY WILL BE VOIDED.
