I am new to this forum as you can tell. I have a ton of boss pedals. well only 33 to be exact. Just wandering if there was any good settings for a CS-2? I play a Ibanez SZ and have a Marshall JMP 50 half stack. Also, I posted some pedals for sell in the other forums and no one has answered back or showed some interest/ just read. Thank you Borge for starting this website and forum you are THE MAN

hey there and welcome to the forum (this part of it anyway) it all depends what kind of sound youre looking for. i like to use with my strats single coils on neck pickup for a nice even snappy sound.

i actually like the "idiot setting" best for the CS-2 which is all 3 knobs cranked, but i might lay off the "level" control if i want to quiet down.

Ah, the CS-2 - one of my favourite Boss pedals...

I usually run it with all the knobs fairly cranked too - I put it in front of an old 14 pin chip OD-1 and it sounds great.

Don't you mean attack?

The CS-2 is one of those subtle comps designed to give the dynamic smoothing of compression without "compressor pedal" tone meethinks. From memory the CS-2 maxed is like a dynacomp at 10 oclock

Hey Dr. Bob,

Why don't you cough up some of those CE-2's you are sitting on!!

Then somebody might trade with you for CS-2....

Hi bosshog

No offense taken, I knew you were kidding & I knew what you meant.
Maybe I could mod a CE-2 into a CS-2 It would be one neat project.

I just got some new toys, I'll write about them in the New pedals
after I've had a bit of a play.

Yeah, sorry i meant Attack for the second knob.
I was swapping my lm-2 in and out earlier and got confused

Dr.Bob, you maybe onto something with the ce-2 into a cs-2
if you can intergrate the comp curcuit,
you'd have one sweet compressor-chorus in one
