Boss CS-2: This is an earlier version of their current CS-3. The CS-1 was a completely different circuit, but the CS-2 and CS-3 are similar. The main differences are the VCA chip (made by Roland in the CS-2, made by THAT Corp. in the CS-3) and the tone knob that the CS-3 has and the CS-2 doesn't. The rest of their circuits are similar enough to not make much of an audible/functional difference.


CS2是目前CS-3的早期版本,CS-1电路与之完全不同【光电耦合,括号里为原文,方括号为转载者注,下同】,但CS-2和CS-3(的电路)是相同的,主要区别在于电压控制放大芯片(CS-2使用的是ROLAND制造,CS-3是THAT Corp【参见http://www.thatcorp.com/ 网站】制造),并且CS-3具有CS-2所没有的TONE音色调节钮,其他的电路高度一致到不会有太多听感/功能差异。


I've seen people describe the CS-2 as "warmer" or "smoother" than the CS-3; what I've found in my own testing is that really it just rolls off the highs somewhat, which often makes things sound warm or smooth. You can get the exact same EQ shape (and thus the same "warmth") by just rolling the CS-3's tone knob back to around 11:00. The CS-2 seems to have a bit less noise, but that may just be because of the rolled-off highs.


我听人们描述CS-2要比CS-3“温暖”和“平滑”,但在我的测试中我发现CS-2只是些微少了些高频,因此会觉得温暖和平滑而已,你可以通过将CS-3的音色调节钮调到大概11点钟方向来得到同样的均衡状态(也就是所说的“温暖”)。CS-2仿佛噪音更小,但也许只是减小了高频。

That said, the different VCA chips do have a bit different action, and the envelope of the CS-2's compression seems a bit more fluid or organic than the CS-3 (which basically just flatlines your signal). So you might find the CS-2 to have a more "musical" action. But the difference I'm describing is fairly subtle. Some people insist the CS-2 is significantly better than the CS-3, but I think they're exaggerating.


即便如此,不同的电压控制放大芯片确实会有一点点不同的表现,CS-2的压缩包络确实看上去比CS-3(这个基本上只会让你的信号扁平)要流畅和生动些,所以也许你应该弄一个CS-2来得到更“音乐性”的表现。但我所描述的这些差异实在是太过细微。有些人坚称CS-2要明显好过CS-3,但我认为他们在夸张。


The setting I like the best is with the compression somewhere between 10:00 and 12:00, and the attack around 12:00. This allows your initial pick/pluck attack through crisply, but then clamps down on your signal for more sustain. It's a nice compromise for somebody who wants more of a squashed effect but without losing articulation.


我最喜欢的压缩设置是位于10点到12点之间,而Attack触发大概在12点方向,使你或拨或弹的触发都可以清晰的通过,然后压缩你的信号来得到更多延音。对于那些希望不损失清晰度而得到压缩效果的人来说这是一个很好的平衡方案。


The CS-2 loses some low end, similar to many other comps meant for guitar. I'd bet that a couple of larger capacitor values would make it more bass-friendly. The construction quality, power supply, and bypass footswitch are the same as most other Boss pedals--though it actually loses a little bit of the lows even when bypassed.


CS-2像大多数专为吉他设计的效果器一样会损失一些低频,我打赌电容值再大一些的话低频会更好一些。虽然它【CS-2】的结构质量,电源,旁通开关跟绝大多数BOSS踏板是一样的,但即使旁通了它也会损失一些低频。

压缩神器?不是卡尔马丁么?

能和CS-3电路一样,少个功能,价格翻一倍的,才叫神器。

从没用过压缩。。。。。

压缩还是很好用的
