ED-1 The Compressor

COMPRESSOR

Depending on the guitar you play, the ED-1 is a very good sounding compressor. We first tested the pedal using a Strat with single coil, low-output pickups. The ED-1 worked beautifully, giving us a very smooth and warm sustain when placed in series with an overdrive pedal. More importantly, using the pedal by itself provided a very clean, compressed sound excellent for individual note riffs and soft/hard comping techniques alike. Depending on the adjustment of the Emphasis and Attack control features, the ED-1 responded with a desired tone and effect comparable to other units of similar value.
