Hotone Skyline Komp optical compressor
Typical Hotone Skyline build quality. It was build to last for a life time.
To be honest I have not found my sweat spot with this pedal. Therefore my input might be just due to my own shortcoming.
Simply said I was not able to find setting where it sounds good. Someone else in some other setup might find it easy.
3.5 stars for me just because it is not easy for me to find my setting with a reserve that maybe in some other setup it might be more apparent.
On other side Hotone Skyline Grass sounds Epic in my opinion and Eko sounds good to. So I would expect this to sound better.
To little compression and effect was not pronounced enough. To much and it already degrades sound quality when you use it for clean sounds that is.
I will have to play with it more and to test it with clean boost and with overdrive pedals in front and behind it.
For now I do not even know is it going to earn a place on my pedal board.
