Controls at a Glance
bypass footswitch: Turns
the compressor on and off.
tone + colour: The left position is a mid
range cut at 500Hz, while the right
position is a upper mid range boost at
2kHz. Both positions engage the ‘colour’
circuit which adds a subtle touch of
harmonic distortion.*
output: Sets the output level. This will not
affect the amount of compression. Can be
used to make up gain lost in compression
or as a boost for soloing.**
release: Controls how quickly the
compressor returns to its initial level.
Release time increases as you turn the
knob clockwise. Range: 50ms - 1s
sc hp: A variable high pass filter that filters
low frequencies from the sidechain. The
filter frequency increases from 20Hz to
400Hz as the knob is turned clockwise.
* The colour circuit can be bypassed in either or both tone switch posions
via internal dipswitches. Set the corresponding dipswitch to o if you prefer
just the tone eq without the colour circuit.
** Empress Eects fully endorses bass solos.
