Description

Super Size Me!

Don't reach for the Pepto just yet - you might want to sink your teeth right into the Sandwich's spicy 12:1 compression, but this sexy little dish serves up everything on the menu. Take a taste of its light and savory settings, from just a hint of minty limiting for that refreshing crisp tone, or crank it up for deep fried five alarm sustain.

Forget the clones - the Frantone Sandwich is a totally new concept in analog optical compression. Its high performance is powered by a new optocoupler designed and manufactured by Frantone in the USA, which controls an active attenuator circuit for ultra linear response and maximum sensitivity. Supremely quiet with amazing fidelity, the volume levels remain constant as you increase compression with the Limit control. Adjusting the Threshold lowers or raises the audible floor, so you get just the response you need. With this control you can eliminate background noise or allow every nuance to shine through. The Sandwich is the perfect choice for a very powerful compressor in a simple package. As a bonus the panel mounted performance LED illustrates what you play and shows the compressor at work. Watch it talk!

Great for both bass and guitar alike.

Frantone Sandwich

ovnilab.com

The Frantone Sandwich compressor pedal dazzles with its rich, warm tone and attractive design, echoing the best qualities of classic clones. However, its slow release time can lead to quirky note attacks, making it less suited for aggressive playing styles. While the pedal shines in sustain and smoothness, it struggles with dynamic spikes and low-end consistency at certain settings. The threshold control is a notable advantage, allowing better compatibility with various instruments. Despite its solid construction and true bypass switch, the challenges with low-end response and attack nuances may leave some musicians wanting more.
