Great Compressor

It's very different than any other compressor I've used. Very light, great for always-one compression.

Versatile and Colourful

The isn't one of those "compressors for people who don't like compressors." It colours your tone a bit, but in a way that I find extremely pleasing. It's also surprisingly versatile. It works incredible well as, not only a compressor, but also as an EQ and a Clean Boost.

Very Good Compressor!

It adds only compressor in your tone. Its doesn't adds flavour or color. A very very good compressor pedal.
