TC Electronic Forcefield kompressor gitarr-effektpedal

Inconsistent dynamics can make your guitar playing sound uneven, with loud peaks overpowering softer passages and notes getting lost in the mix. The TC Electronic Forcefield Compressor solves this by smoothing out your signal, adding sustain and punch while preserving your tone's natural character. This analog pedal is built like a tank in a die-cast metal enclosure, ready for the rigors of the road.

Who is it for

Guitarists of all levels who want to tighten their sound, from funk players seeking that squashed clean tone to rockers needing extra sustain for solos. It's equally at home on a pedalboard for live gigs or in a studio setup for recording, thanks to its true bypass switching that keeps your signal pristine when disengaged.

Start with the Blend control at noon to mix your dry and compressed signals for a natural feel. Increase Sustain for longer note decay, and adjust Attack to let initial pick transients through for a punchier sound. Pair it with an overdrive pedal after compression to achieve singing lead tones.
