2. Орнотуу
Follow these steps to set up your Donner Lax Comp Compressor Pedal:
- Кубат туташуу: Connect a standard 9V DC power adapter (center negative, 50mA minimum, not included) to the DC 9V input jack on the top of the pedal.
- Киргизүү байланышы: Connect your guitar or bass to the "IN" jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
- Чыгуу туташуу: Педалдын сол жагындагы "OUT" уячасын өзүңүзгө туташтырыңыз ampкөтөргүчтү же сигнал чынжырыңыздагы кийинки педалды стандарттуу 1/4 дюймдук аспап кабелин колдонуп басыңыз.
- Күйгүзүү: Ensure all connections are secure before applying power to the pedal. The pedal is ready for use once powered.

3.1. Башкаруу баскычтары
- Туруктуу: Adjusts the compression ratio and increases sustain. As your signal decays, it will increase volume to create longer sustain.
- Кол салуу: Adjusts how fast the compressor recovers from louder signals. A faster attack allows more of the initial transient through, while a slower attack compresses the initial transient more.
- Деңгээл: Adjusts the final output volume of the compressor. At the 12 o'clock position, the input and output volume are balanced.
- Чек: Controls the size of the input signal going into compression and generates limiting effects.

3.2. Tone Switch
The toggle switch allows selection between two distinct tonal modes:
- Табигый: This mode utilizes the original circuit, maintaining the original input and output tone consistency.
- Жаркын: This mode adds high frequencies to the signal, catering to users who prefer crisp and bright tones, often desired for funky styles.

3.3. Чыныгы айланып өтүү
The pedal features true bypass circuitry. When the pedal is disengaged (effect off), the signal passes directly through the pedal without any coloration or degradation, preserving your instrument's natural tone.
