I've gone backwards and am using a CS2 for the times i need a compressor but this time i'm running it via the loop from a Barge Concepts VBJr, it allows me to feed in just a little of the compressed tone.

Yes,i know that some pedals have a 'blend' control but that's the pedals version of a blend between your clean and effected tone whereas using the VBJr i get a blend of the 'actual' clean tone + the effected one (hope that makes sense), it's about the best way i have come across to get great tone and not screw up the pick attack and the start of the note.

YMMV of course but worth a try.
