Electro Harmonix – Tone Corset

The Tone Corset is new four-knob analog compressor/sustainer that allows for extreme or subtle control of the dynamics of your instrument. There are controls for setting the output volume, sustain/compression, attack, blend amount and pad switch. Mike Matthews says, “The Tone Corset is the funkiest analog compressor I ever heard on guitar!”

The pedals Sustain knob controls the amount of compression applied to the guitar signal. The Attack knob adjusts how quickly the compressor recovers. As Attack is turned clockwise the pedals response is slower and more initial pick attack comes thru. The Blend knobs adjusts the mix of the dry and compressed signals. By blending both the player can achieve a sound where the dry signal allows the natural pick attack to come thru while the compressed side turns up the volume as the note decays. Volume adjusts the overall output level of the effect. A Pad switch pads down the input signal to prevent undesirable distortion when the pedal is used with high output humbuckers, bass guitar, etc.

The Tone Corset features True Bypass switching to ensure maximum signal path integrity and comes with a 9 Volt battery.
