PANEL DESCRIPTION

1.  AC Adaptor Jack: Connect an AC adaptor (100-140V/50-60Hz).

  An AC adaptor allows long and secure operation without worrying about 

battery life.

  Use the proper supply for your area’s Mains line voltage.

2.  Indicator LED: This LED indicates when the effect is turned on.

  •  Operating on battery power only: when the LED becomes dim or does  

  not light the battery needs to be replaced.

INSTRUCTIONS

Thanks for purchasing our product. In order to make the best use of your 

CS-100, please read the following carefully.

FEATURES

The CS-100 is compression sustainer that produces long sustain without 

distortion sound. It evens the input signal. 

3.  Level Knob: Use this control to adjust the output level of the effect.

4.  Tone Knob: Use this control to adjust the tone. Turn this knob clockwise to 

emphasize the high frequencies and create a sharp tone. Turn the knob 

counter-clockwise for a warm tone.

5.  Attack knob: Use this control to adjust the intensity of the attack in picking. 

Turn this knob clockwise to emphasize each note even in fast picking.

6.  Sustain Knob: Use this this control to adjust the sustain time. Turn this 

knob clockwise to increase the sustain time and counter-clockwise to limit 

the output level of the effect and use the pedal as a limiter.

7.  Output Jack: Use the jack to connect an amplifier or other units.

8.  Pedal: Press the pedal to turn the effect on and off.

9.  Thumb Screw: Loosen the screw to open the pedal for battery 

replacement. (For details of the battery replacement, see “BATTERY
