Really small compressor with a lot of tweakability and great price

I wanted a compressor wich is always on to hide my dynamic mistakes. It has minimal footprint, and I didn't have to bust the bank to buy it. It is clear and noisless. I really like it.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

I use it with the blend knob at maximum, the compression on below noon, and the attack on almost maximum. It makes my tone more alive.

Great Mini Compressor

Compressor that is perfect mix of compression and raw tone , the quality of the tone is very clean and neat , great mini pedal and space saver and need not tweak much and the cap lights up when the pedal is on and is kind of small details which builders at times miss ... But overall a great tone l

brian_steels

Small and great for tucking under your board!

Not as good as my SP comp for sure, but this little guy fits nicely under my PT-1 and is great as a set and forget, fixing my second line's voluming issues.
