About Origin Effects
Origin Effects is the brainchild of Simon Keats, a guitarist, electronic engineer and
analogue circuit designer who has worked for the likes of Vox, Focusrite and Trident
Audio. Having built bespoke effects for professional musicians and producers for many
years, he launched the Origin Effects brand in 2012 to bring his exceptional designs to a
wider audience.
His first two pedals – the Cali76 compressor and the unique SlideRIG dual-chained
compressor – were soon followed by the Compact Series for guitar and bass. Widely
recognised as the best pedal compressors ever made, they have found favour with
guitarists and bass players like David Gilmour, Pete Townshend, Peter Frampton, Lenny
Kravitz, Ed O'Brien, and Graham Coxon, as well as Grammy Award-winning producers
like Paul Epworth, Ross Hogarth and Terry Britten.
Please note: Origin Effects Limited is in no way affiliated with Fender, Marshall or Vox
amplifiers, Urei or Universal Audio.
