The Empress Bass Compressor transcends typical stompbox designs, supplying you with a control set akin to a high-end studio processor. For starters, this bass effects pedal includes three flexible compression ratios, Attack and Release controls, and a Mix knob. You also get a sidechain send/return, sidechain highpass filter, and a Tone + Colour switch that infuses your tone with ear-grabbing harmonic distortion. Separate gain reduction and input meters are also onboard, complete with bright, multi-color LEDs. This compressor pedal boasts an all-analog signal path and true-bypass switching for transparent processing and zero coloration when you turn it off. A compact, pedalboard-friendly housing and sparkling finish round out the Empress Bass Compressor's generous feature set.

An all-inclusive control set

Thanks to its comprehensive control set, using the Empress Bass Compressor offers a similar experience to operating a high-end studio unit. Three compression ratios — 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1 — offer tons of flexibility. Attack and Release controls enable you to take full control of your compression characteristics. Mix makes dialing in parallel compression a piece of cake. The pedal's Tone + Colour switch adds mild harmonic distortion with a selectable midrange cut or upper-midrange boost. You also get a sidechain send/return and a variable sidechain highpass filter for fine-tuning the compressor's response. The bassists here at Sweetwater have been blown away by the Empress Bass Compressor's advanced metering, which includes separate gain reduction and input meters with easy-to-read, multi-color LEDs. You'll always know what this compressor stompbox is doing!
