Information:

The MI Audio Compressor is a new analog compression circuit with some unique features than make it stand out from its brethren.  Audiophile caps and high quality low temp metal film resistors are just the beginning of the stellar tone that you will hear from this compressor.  MI Audio has added some recognizable studio features to this little box for unparalleled flexibility in a stompbox compressor.  Perfect for guitar or bass, the MI Audio Compressor features your standard Volume and Sustain controls for level and compression amount but some added features include external Attack and Release controls, a noise gate, and a Level control.  With this much flexibility, the MI Audio Compressor allows for extreme fine tuning to give the right amount of compression for any situation.

Sometimes a pedal comes along that just stands out from the rest.  This is the case with the MI Audio Compressor.  Let’s start with the Level control.  This adjusts the amount of signal at the beginning of the signal chain.  This is an important feature for fine tuning the input and quickly adjusting to higher output pickups or active electronics without overloading the compression circuit.  The result?  Smooth, perfect compression on any instrument.  The Attack and Release controls are the same as on a studio compressor, they control how fast or slow the compressor comes in and out, respectively.  This allows for fine tuning for the perfect amount of sustain and/or squish.  The Gate control adjusts the level of the noise gate.  The gate in the MI Audio Compressor is super fast and transparent, killing noise without cutting off signal or chopping up your tone.  There is also an internal trimmer for adjusting the release time of the gate.  The Volume and Sustain controls are standard, with plenty of extra volume for boosting your signal and plenty of compression on tap, from transparent sustain to super squishy lovliness.  With a feature set like this, MI Audio has proven once again to be at the forefront of pedal design.
