TC Electronic FORCEFIELD COMPRESSOR Classic Compressor/Limiter Pedal with Endless Sustain

Solidly built and straightforward to use. Tightens up the sound nicely. A very good product which compares favourably with some of the most expensive compressors. Too good for the price! Check out the many professoonal reviews on YouTube.

Great little conpressor at such a low price. Does what it says on the tin - provides smooth compression and sustain and comes in a sturdy metal box. Great for making your lead lines stand out, or smoothing out thevolume of choppy staccato chords...

I think it's great. The power socket on side which isn't ideal for me, most pedals have it at top. Bit noisy when used with overdrive but that's common with this kind of pedal as it boosts quiet notes but also quiet noise gets boosted aswell. I like the fact it remembers it's state, when it gets power again, so don't need to keep turning it on each time, I want it as a always on pedal to even out volume across playing and help those quieter notes to cut through. Seems to do a good job, the extra sustain is a nice bonus, nice professional sound.

Compression isn't instantly recognisable as a guitar effect like reverb, or chorus and at first it's difficult to hear what's going on. Normally we compensate or ignore variation in volume from individual guitar strings. The compressor takes the dry signal and makes the frequency response the same amplitude throughout the range. Also because it's working with the volume you can generate sustain. All of which means chords are more vibrant and single notes more precise, you appear a better player. What's not to like?!! There are 4 controls, Sustain is great, Level is necessary, but I'm not sold on Attack or Blend. Sustain is great. but be careful with single coil pickups, they can generate a LOT of noise as you turn up sustain. Humbuckers are better as by their nature they already have noise suppression, I can turn mine up to maximum. Level lets you set the output volume so when you switch the pedal in and out the volumes are the same, or not. Attack sets the compressor reaction time, short (anti clockwise) takes out some of the plectrum noise. I found set long (clockwise) I started to get momentary fluctuations in volume. I leave mine on short. Blend mixes your compression settings with the original dry signal, the smaller HyperGravity mini doesn't have the Blend knob which makes me wonder if I really need it? TonePrint is great on some of the other boxes, but a disappointing range of templates for this, all much the same. I would recommend anyone interested in a stomp box to check out the demos on U tube, however U Tube IS compressed already, so it's difficult to hear what's going on in the compressor vids! db

A very easy to use compressor that can just add a little bit of extra weight and sustain to the guitar. I bought it to use mainly on the electro acoustics and it does the job without adding any noticeable noise. It’s all metal, sturdy and has the ability to be battery powered if needed. Although you will need to remember to unplug the input whenever not in use if on battery. If not you will use a lot of batteries and as you need to unscrew it to replace them it’s not something you want to have happen unexpectedly.

Good compressor. Quiet, I prefer it to my boss. I needed cheap second compressor this surpassed my expectations.

First product I received became faulty after around 3hrs, possibly a loose wire - I haven't opened it up. Replacement was sorted quickly by Amazon (next day) and is working fine. Good budget compressor pedal. Can be used as a boost. Only criticism is it is quite a large pedal, other than that it's great for the price. I've seen some of these TC pedals on some professional boards.

Considering the price, this pedal does a fantastic job. It sounds as good as my Empress compressor which costs four times as much. Transparent, not noisy, compact and simple.

Pedale che si presenta con ottima costruzione. Le manopole sono davvero comode e danno un bel feedback tattile all'utilizzatore. Il suono, personalmente, lo ritengo molto equilibrato se non si cerca una compressione estrema. La resa sui puliti è davvero interessante, e in più non produce significativo rumore aggiunto. Lo consiglio sicuramente!

Pédale de très bonne qualité et rendu sonore excellent

ベースに使っています。コンプも掛かるし、歪みも出せます。ツマミも３つなので、わかりやすいとおもいます。高価なコンプもありますが、わたしには十分です。

Love it

Muy buen compresor, por ese precio. Además, es lo que buscaba: Sencillez, tratándose de un pedal, y no de un rock profesional. Lo uso con el bajo eléctrico, y suena un pepinazo cuando lo conecto. Nada de ruido. Además con el Tone Print, puedo guardar una configuración que me guste. Muy intuitivo. No se arrepentirá.
