Episode 2 - Signal Chain Series - Compressors
Alan and Paul begin their signal chain series by discussing compressors. This episode kicks off an introductory series that will explore the components of a pedalboard.
A compressor is an effect that evens out the volume of your guitar playing by reducing the level of loud sounds and boosting quieter ones. This can add sustain to notes and create a more consistent overall sound.
Our hosts will talk about their experience with compressors, how they fit into their sound, and how they use them.
This episode lays the foundation for upcoming discussions on other pedal types, helping listeners understand how to build and optimize their signal chain. Whether you're new to effects or looking to refine your tone, we hope this series will provide valuable insights into crafting your ideal guitar sound.
