4 STEPS TO ENDLESS SUSTAIN!
Using your Sustainer
Insert a 9V alkaline battery or connect to an electrical outlet using
the T-Rex Fuel Tank power supply (not included).
Plug your guitar into the INPUT jack, and run a lead from the OUT-
PUT jack into your amp.
Use the COMP knob to compress or “squeeze” your sound, and the
SUST knob to lengthen your sustain.
The ATTACK switch lets you choose between a slow (turtle) attack
for a subtler, more natural sound, and a fast (rabbit) attack for a
more radical squeeze and sustain effect.
HOW IT WORKS
Compressor
Your T-Rex Sustainer is really two effects in one: a sustain-optimised
compressor and a “time-release” gain. The compressor takes your
sound and “squeezes” it, limiting volume “peaks” and boosting quiet
sounds, or “troughs”. This resulting sound is more even and easier to
extend by adding gain.
Gain
Once your signal has been compressed, an amplifier gradually adds
gain as the note your’re playing starts to face out. This keeps your
sound going, almost as long as you want it to.
A word of advice
A sustain effect is 100% classic, but it’s also a subtle effect. Make
sure to take plenty of time experimenting with different settings –
until you find a setting or group of settings that matches your style
of music and your own personal sound.
