User Manual Support

Compression is a tool used on pretty much every recording you will ever hear, yet this extremely useful and versatile tool is often overlooked by guitar players as part of their rig. 

Other  compressor pedals are  often  limited by oversimplified controls and heavily colored sounds.  We have  created  a  truly transparent compressor, complete with all the controls found in the studio.  The result is a tool that allows for a wide range of sounds from subtly adding sustain to  getting the “quack” that country players love.

We've also included a mix knob to blend in the dry signal for an even more  transparent sound and a gain reduction meter so you know what the compressor is doing at all times.
