PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The CompTortion logically, and uniquely, combines two effects:

compression and distortion. No other single pedal offers this kind of

control over such a range of sounds - - from totally clean to light distor-

tion to smooth and creamy overdrive, and from zero compression to

completely squashed.

The CompTortion is multifunctional and exceptionally versatile. Musically

voiced to complement each other, the effects are independently

adjustable so you can determine the formula that best suits your particu-

lar taste.You have the option of using the compression by itself or just

the distortion alone.And, of course, you can mix the two together.You

can also use the CompTortion solely for a clean boost, up to 12dB.

Compression and distortion in the same signal chain are inherently very

noisy. Even if you had “the best” compressor hooked up with “the best”

distortion unit, there would be so much noise you wouldn’t be able to

use them without an outboard noise gate. Having specifically designed

these two effects into one unit, noise reduction was engineered directly

into the circuitry.

Characteristic of all Tech 21 products, the CompTortion will not deper-

sonalize your guitar tone. It is highly interactive with your individual play-

ing style, your individual musical style, and your instrument’s individual

tonality. It is our hope that the CompTortion will be a useful tool for

stimulating your creativity and, ultimately, providing the inspiration to play

your best.

APPLICATIONS

The CompTortion is designed for use with any amp - - tube or solid

state, vintage or modern.You can achieve the same results using the

CompTortion with any of our highly-acclaimed SansAmpTM models of

Tube Amplifier Emulators, as there is no speaker simulation within the

CompTortion’s circuitry.

The 100% analog technology can also add warmth and dimension to

any digital signal processor.

Simply plug your guitar into the CompTortion, and plug the

CompTortion into the input of your amp (or the input of a SansAmp).

GUIDE TO CONTROLS

COMP (Compression)

controls the amount of compression and sustain without any distortion.

Ranges from minimum at 1:1 to maximum at 15:1.

TORTION (Distortion)

controls the amount of distortion and sustain without any compression.

At minimum, setting is completely clean.

TONE

is a traditional passive shelving tone control.

LEVEL

adjusts the output level without altering any tonal characteristics.

NOTEWORTHY NOTES & SUGGESTIONS

--For guitar amps that tend to be on the bright side, we recommend you

begin experimenting with the Tone control set lower than 12 o’clock.

When available, use the Normal channel on your amp, rather than the

Bright channel.

--Whenever you’re not playing, we suggest turning your guitar volume to

minimum. Outside interference can trigger the noise gate to open,

causing unwanted background noise to be present (particularly with

single coil pickups).

--Having both Comp and Tortion set at maximum at the same time may

cause microphonic feedback in live performances and excess noise in

recording applications.When using one at maximum, we recommend

using the other sparingly.

--The LED will fade as the battery runs low.

USING THE COMPTORTION

WITH OTHER EFFECTS

For best results, plug your guitar directly into the CompTortion.This will

preserve the interactive nature of the unit. Otherwise, place the

following effects:

BEFORE: Chorus, Envelope Filter/Follower,Wah-Wah

AFTER: Chorus, Distortion (other), Echo, Reverb, SansAmp,

Volume Pedal
