What does a compressor do A compressor adds an element of control to your playing level it will bring the quieter parts up and the louder parts down. While an ordinary compressor pedal can give you an element of control, a great compressor will give you the feel that other average compressors lack. If youve played a great tube amp when its being pushed hard, youll know what a great natural compression feels like. When we designed this pedal, the focus was ensuring the playing dynamics could be retained and that the compressor didnt color the tone at all. By incorporating a clean blend, it allows your original signal to be blended back in so you can get all the benefits of a great compressor (picking up the notes that arent as strong and increasing sustain) but have the option to remove the squash at the front. With this control, you can have full country squash or open studio level parallel compression. So, with a comprehensive array of controls and a core tone that is pure, you wont find a compressor that works as perfectly as an always on or as an effect and is more highly regarded than the Ego Compressor from Wampler Pedals.
