CS-3 Compression Sustainer

Who is using one, and where in the chain of effects do you place it? I've had my best luck using it after my distortion pedal to boost its signal.

..and before any of you bitches gets yer fallopian tubes in a knot, search yields nothing about this pedal.

Technically speaking it should come before your distortion in the chain, but whatever sounds best to you...

yeah most everything i read says put it first, but like i said, i get best result using it as a boost after my dist pedal with amp on clean.. it's definitely a possible cure for the MT-2 (besides hitting it with a hammer and tossing it). the difference is too subtle when i put the CS before distortion, but maybe that's because i am working with a 30w solid state? i'll definitely keep running it post-dist since i like what it does to the MT2, which i nearly abandoned when i got the cube, but if anyone has some good knob settings for running this thing up front, let me know. in the meantime, i will keep messing with it.

I used one but I got rid of most my boss pedals now, I usually placed it after distortion pedals, for boost and sustain (solos)
