Ego Compressor

Price:	$ 199.

A cross between a "Keeley" type compressor and an old vintage "Dynacomp" compressor with an added clean blend knob that allows you to get a very natural "attack" without losing any compression or sustain and a tone knob that allows your tone to be clear while it cuts through a mix perfectly

Details:

Like many guitarists, I had always been looking for a compressor that was transparent while still giving the sound a very pleasant thickening quality. I had used many compressor in the past and they always seemed to alter the tone in a way that sounded as if the squeezing and compressing was 'fake' - like it had a cheapening affect on the sound.

The Ego Squasher is your answer to this...

It gives you a clear articulate sound thanks to the 'clean blend' knob which blends in your original clean signal yet still thickens your tone up better than anything else available in pedal form. It also will add a ton of sustain to your notes - all without excess noise. The new "tone" control adds in clarity and punchiness - while cutting through the mix! It won't screw your core tone up either like other compressors with tone controls.

A Refreshing Compressor for country music

OK, here is how I got my best sound and the secret was in the instructions. I just turned the volume to 12, blend knob all of the way on, attack at 5 oclock, and sustain all of the way up. Instructions say that with blend knob turned all of the way up and attack turned to 5 which is fastest setting, similar to a Keeley setting, you get the classic compressor sound and you do. natural. You can chickin pick to your heart's delight and get all of the punch and compression you want, when I felt I could do what I wanted, I started backing off the knobs to a myriad of sound possibilities.
