SILKY GROOVE is a standard model based on the highly acclaimed SILKY COMP from the Custom Series, featuring a dry mix circuit that was highly requested by guitarists and bassists. While inheriting the sound of SILKY COMP, it has improved functionality and ease of use. The newly designed dry mix circuit has been carefully designed with consideration given to the phase of the two sounds to avoid the phenomenon where the effected and dry sounds sound like separate sounds when mixed.You can experience a sound where the dry and effected sounds blend together in a way that is not possible with commonly used mix circuits. This dry mix circuit allows for a wide range of sound creation, from a highly compressed effect sound with no dry sound to a sound with speed and core that mixes in dry sound. Compressors are generally one of the most difficult effects to adjust. SILKY GROOVE has optimized the operation of the compression circuit to make compressor adjustments easier. "ATTACK" adjusts the strength of the input attack sound, while "SUSTAIN" changes the strength of the compression to adjust the sustain. Each adjusts smoothly, making it easy to find the setting you like. SILKY GROOVE produces silky smooth and natural compression without compromising the sound character of your guitar or bass, the subtle touch of your fingers, the nuances of your picking, and other important elements.It delivers rich expressiveness to a variety of performances, from sparkling guitar arpeggios and crisp cutting, to extended solos, and from well-defined bass bottom playing to bouncy slaps. Features: The compressor's "ATTACK" and "SUSTAIN" controls are designed with gentle curves that are easy to adjust to avoid sudden changes. - Equipped with a newly designed dry mix circuit, the dry sound and effect sound can be mixed to create a wide range of sounds. - Equipped with an HTS (Holistic Tonal Solution) circuit. Unlike conventional buffer circuits, the HTS circuit converts impedance while bringing out the full sound characteristics of your guitar or bass, achieving both high sound quality and low noise. This HTS circuit prevents deterioration of the guitar or bass sound even when the effect is turned off. - The output signal is in phase with the input signal, so there is no need to worry about phase inversion.
