Introduction
When we released our original Compressor back in
2011, it quickly became a favourite among guitar and
bass players alike who were searching for something
more than the typical oversimplified controls found
on most compressor pedals. Although our original
Compressor sounded great on bass (and still does!)
we set out to do even better.
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 fully variable sidechain high pass filter,
and a two position ‘tone + colour’ circuit which adds
gentle tone sculpting and harmonic distortion, giving
your bass some delicious character.
We hope the Bass Compressor becomes a favourite
of yours as well, and sincerely thank you for choosing
Empress Effects.
