Precautions

Introduction

Compressors are one of the best tools in a guitar player’s

tool box, and the Reaction Compressor fullls all the

requirements for outstanding compression. Professional

players use a compressor like a secret weapon to get

accomplish many things, including adding more sustain

to any guitar without adding distortion, dening every

note in a chord while letting it ring out, creating in your

face solos, and much more.

Rocktron’s Reaction Series pedals are built into a rugged

metal slim form factor chassis, taking up as little space as

possible on your pedalboard. The Reaction Compressor

is a TRUE BYPASS pedal: when you turn it off…it is out

of your signal path!

Control knobs for the Reaction Compressor include

SUSTAIN, which controls the amount of Compression

and Release characteristics. ATTACK determines how

fast the compression reacts. LEVEL controls the output

volume.

Most studio compressors are big and bulky and quite

difcult to set. Rocktron comes to the rescue with

the Reaction Compressor. It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3 to

get professional results that will improve your live

performances.

Here’s some tips. Start by setting the ATTACK and

LEVEL controls around the 12::00 o’clock position.

Turn the SUSTAIN from left to right in small increments

while playing until you achieve the texture you are

seeking. After you have found your favorite sweet spot,

Introduction

use the LEVEL control to ne tune your output level.

That’s it! Sound check is done.

Use the Reaction Compressor as a master SOLO switch

to not only dene what you play but also to raise the

volume! The soundman can worry about something

else…you have performance control!.

Typically you want to set the output level after

compression has been applied so that it is the same as

the pedal in True Bypass – this is called “unity gain” (the

same level from pedal on to pedal off). You may want to

apply compression, and then actually add volume using

the LEVEL control. Now you have added more sustain

and drive which can be used before an overdrive pedal, or

direct into your amplier.

Compression helps dene articulation for any instrument

by limiting how loud a note can get. It also makes

lower volume notes louder. The end result is a smoother

and more even sound, and that is what you hear on

professional recordings. It’s also what you will hear live!

The soundman will thank you!

The footswitch on the Reaction Compressor controls

On/Off status as shown by the LED indicator. Reaction

stomp boxes run on a 9V Alkaline battery, or may also

be powered by Rocktron’s DC OnTap Universal Power

Supply adaptor.
