COMPRESSOR SUSTAINER CS400
Thank you for showing your confidence in us by purchasing the BEHRINGER
COMPRESSOR SUSTAINER CS400. This ultimate effects pedal is specifically designed to
achieve super-smooth compression and endless sustain. Thanks to its high-performance
features you can compress loud and boost low signals without degrading the original
sound.
A compressor limits the dynamic range of a signal. This means that signal peaks will be
attenuated and the level differences between loudest and softest playing are reduced.
This results in a more powerful and pressure-rich tone.
1. CONTROLS
Top view
The LEVEL control adjusts the output level.
Turn up the TONE control to achieve more presence and sound clarity.
The  ATTACK control determines how fast the compressor reacts on the input
signal. The attack time is sweepable between slow and fast.
The SUSTAIN control determines the amount of compression that results in long-
lasting tones.
The  ON/BATT LED illuminates when the effect is activated. It also serves as a
battery level indicator.
Use the footswitch to activate/deactivate the effect.
Use this 1/4" TS IN connector to plug in the instrument cable.
The 1/4" TS OUT connector sends the signal to your amp.
Use the DC IN connection at the front of the unit to plug in a 9 V power supply (not included).
The BATTERY COMPARTMENT is located underneath the pedal cover. To install or
replace the 9 V battery, press the hinges with a ballpen and remove the pedal cover. Be
careful not to scratch the unit.
