The SlideRIG Compact Deluxe MK2 is a dual-stage
FET compressor, based on two UREI
sors connected in series and optimised for slide guitar.
1. GET CONNECTED
INSTR: Plug in your guitar or other instrument.
AMP: Connect to your amp or other effects pedals.
9-18VDC: Insert a 9-18VDC 2.1mm centre-negative
power supply (minimum 100mA). For best perfor-
mance, the pedal should be powered from an 18V
supply for additional headroom.
2. CONTROLS
IN: Turning clockwise will increase gain and the
amount of compression applied.
ATT/REL: This control adjusts the attack and re-
lease times of both compression stages simultaneously,
offering the most musical settings. Set clockwise for
slow attack and fast release, resulting in a more open
and dynamic feel. Turn counterclockwise for extreme
sustain. Attack times range from 0.20 to 0.86 millisec-
onds. Release times range from 33 to 250 milliseconds.
STAGE 1: This controls the level of signal fed from
the first compressor to the pedal's master output.
Fully counterclockwise, all the signal is fed to Stage 2.
As the knob is turned clockwise, the two stages begin
to run in parallel, increasing clarity and dynamic range
STAGE 2: This controls the level of signal fed from
the second compressor to the pedal's master output.
Fully counterclockwise, only stage 1 will be heard,
resulting in subtle, single-stage compression. Turn this
control up to access sustaining, dual-stage compres-
sion.
Each compression stage has its ratio preset at 4:1.
DRY: This control adds some dry, uncompressed

signal at the pedal's output, mixing your dry signal in

parallel with the compressed signal. Fully clockwise,
this control adds 8.5dB of boost, with unity gain at the
2 o'clock position.
3. SAMPLE SETTINGS
CONVENTIONAL COMPRESSION: Using just
Stage 1, this subtle, single-stage compression sound
evens out playing dynamics without feeling unnatural
or intrusive.
