On top of the full range of features and controls normally only seen in high end studio equipment, such as input and gain reduction metering, independent attack and release controls, a mix knob for parallel compression, and an external sidechain insert, we’ve now added a ‘tilt’ tone eq control, and a selectable sidechain high pass filter built into the Compressor’s detection circuit. Oh, and the whole package is now half the size and available in two snazzy colours!

• 
  All Analog Signal Path - no digitals in here!


• 
  Extremely Transparent - Add dynamic control without altering the original tone of your instrument


• 
  3 Compression Ratios - 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1 ratios offer lots of flexibility


• 
  Attack and Release Control - allows for ultimate control over the compression characteristics


• 
  Mix - Blend uncompressed signal in with the compressed signal for parallel compression, New York Style!


• 
  Metering - Meter both gain reduction and input levels on separate meters.


• 
  Tone - New tone knob, a "tilt" sytle tone knob centered at 500Hz to nail that perfect tone.
  
  


• 
  Sidechain Send/Return- 3.5mm TRS jack send and return for sidechain compression.
  
  


• 
  Sidechain High Pass Filter - No need to add a high pass filter to the sidechain, now there is one built in that can be toggled off or set to 120 or 240Hz.
  
  


• 
  True Display LEDs - Bright multi-color LEDs always let you know what the compressor is doing.


• 
  Power On Bypassed or Engaged - For musicians that never want to turn their compressor off.
  
  


• 
  True Bypass - The Empress Compressor employs true bypass, so you can be sure that it's not affecting the signal when disengaged.


• 
  Small Size - New enclosure approximately half the size of the original compressor, which is delightfully small when considering all the features packed into this unit.


• 
  Beautiful Case - It has a sparkle you can't deny, in blue or silver!
