Description
Empress Effects' Bass Compressor is an update to the original pedal, first released back in 2011. This bass version of the Compressor features an all-new "tilt" EQ/Tone control, and a selectable sidechain High Pass Filter that is built into the pedal's detection circuit. Plus, it's half the size as the original compressor that was hugely popular among guitarists and bassists alike, making it incredibly pedalboard friendly. Plus, it has an all new sparkle finish. From its all-analog signal path, to its convenient size, to its wide-ranging controls (see features), Empress Effect's Bass Compressor has everything you need for studio-grade compression effects.
Features:
-All Analog Signal Path - no digitals in here!
-Extremely Transparent - Add dynamic control without altering the original tone of your instrument
-3 Compression Ratios - 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1 ratios offer lots of flexibility
-Attack and Release Control - allows for ultimate control over the compression characteristics
-Mix - Blend uncompressed signal in with the compressed signal for parallel compression, New York Style!
-Metering - Meter both gain reduction and input on separate meters.
-Tone + Color - Adds mild harmonic distortion with a mid range cut or an upper mid range boost.
-Sidechain Send/Return- 3.5mm TRS jack send and return for sidechain compresson.
-Sidechain High Pass Filter - a variable high pass filter that filters low frequencies from the sidechain. The filter frequency ranges from 20Hz to 400Hz.
-Improved Low End Frequency Response - To handle those low low sounds, completely flat down to 20Hz.
-True Display LEDs - Bright multi-color LEDs always let you know what the compressor is doing.
-True Bypass - The Empress Compressor employs true bypass, so you can be sure that it's not affecting the signal when disengaged.
-Small Size - New enclosure approximately half the size of the original compressor, which is delightfully small when considering all the features packed into this unit.
-Beautiful Case - It has a sparkle you can't deny, available in blue or silver!
