Members IRG Posted February 17, 2008 Members Share Posted February 17, 2008 Are you diggin this pedal because you haven't used a compressor before, or is it just THIS compressor? I've gone through 3 now, and don't feel like I need them, especially for blues. I do have a Keeley TS-9 and dig it though. What about this Keeley comp makes it the cats meow?

I've only dabbled in compressors, I have a Digitech Main Squeeze and an old Pearl Compressor. I could never find an actual use for them in the past. Since I already have a bunch of pedals by Keeley, I figured I'd give his compressor a chance. I actually thought it was going to be an over-hyped let down, but I was surprised how much I liked it. It give you sooo much sustain and chord work is a lot more articulate(even with distortion). My Keeley TS-9 and Keeley compressor will never be apart again, I might as well weld them together now!!

Members NappyDugOut Posted February 17, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 17, 2008 How quiet or noisey is it? It's quiet by itself , but add the TS-9 and there is a little noise, but my NS-2 takes care of that..............but most of the time I didn't use the NS-2 is not that much noise.

Members IRG Posted February 17, 2008 Members Share Posted February 17, 2008 Cool. I use an NS-2 as well, and I find I keep it on almost all the time. But I use a number of different dirt pedals, sometimes together, so the noise reduction is welcomed. GLad to know the comp doesn't add too much noise, one of my main complaints with compressors.

Members orourke Posted February 17, 2008 Members Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'm a Keeley fan but I didn't buy his compressor because I understand it's pretty much based on a Ross compressor. I used to own a Ross and it was a tad too muddy for me. I've been using a Barber Tone Press for a few years now and I think it's fantastic, the blend knob really helps keep the mud at bay. Used with a Barber LTD and you get this really transparent natural sound that sustains endlessly. Anyway, congrats and a successful purchase.
