Selling my Elysia Mpressor 500, single-channel 500 series compressor in mint condition.

Discrete Class-A compressor module bringing the circuit of elysia's rackmount mpressor into the 500 series format. Gain potentiometer placed before the control element, so the intensity of saturation can be raised or lowered via the gain control. Designed, engineered, and handcrafted in Germany.

Specs

• Discrete Class-A topology, feed-forward design
• Extreme time constants, negative ratios, Anti-Log release curve
• Gain reduction limiter in the control path
• Switchable THD Boost for on-the-fly saturation/coloration
• Auto-Fast switchable semi-automation for attack/release
• Stepped controls for instant recall
• Dynamic analog LED metering
• 6-layer PCB with dedicated ground shield

Reputation

Known for combining strong punch with a full, detailed Class-A sound, going beyond standard compression with unconventional tools like negative ratios and extreme time constants. Effective on drums, vocals, bass, and full mixes, valued for its versatility between transparent and creative/aggressive compression styles.
