When Brian Wampler designed the Ego Compressor, the term "transparency" emerged again and again before his inner eye. Therefore, the Ego Compressor is designed in such a way that it does not discolour the basic sound in any way. With the Tone and Blend knobs, the effect can be set in such a way that it effectively works, but the signal path is completely pure and unaffected.
The secret weapon is here the Blend controller. This controls the entire control path of the potentiometer between "no effect" and "full tube". Somewhere inbetween is exactly the point, which has exactly the amount of compression, to naturally tone the sound and, if necessary, extend the sustain, but without any loss of dynamics and attack.
So far this has been just a dream, but with the Wampler Ego Compressor it has become reality. Combined with the Tone control (which adds the little sparkle you need to make a mix), one of those amazingly simple, but incredibly effective knobs is the choice of whether to use the pedal occasionally as an effect, or Quite simply always on.

This is an effect that you might not know you need, but without which you cannot live if you have used it!
