Compressor Pro Professional Studio Compressor Pedal Review

Perfect for acoustic guitar

I use this in a house of worship with very 'live' acoustics. Three things I love: 1. A fast attack eliminates the string noise from the bridge pickup in my Taylor, and takes the amplified sound of my Lowden to another level of warmth & clarity. 2. Using 4:1 soft knee compression tames the strident treble frequencies and aids in feedback suppression so that I can get full, round… read more bass notes without having to notch them out with EQ. 3. The sum of all the parts is a full, string-to-string balanced acoustic sound: strummed or finger picked. I've been chasing this sound for 30 years and found it! Worth every penny.

Great compressor

Title says it all. An all around great compressor that can be used in a lot of different ways. There is lot of control with this thing, which is fantastic if you know how to use a compressor... Less so if you're not familiar with them, especially if you don't know how to set the attack and release. The attack and release relationship is crucial to all styles of compression,… read more whether it's super squashed or transparent. Spend some time with that relationship and it will shine. Top loading inputs so you can put it side by side with other pedals, love it. For being 9v it still has a ton of headroom and is quiet. I compared it to my Origin Effects Cali76 CB and i couldn't hear any noise difference between the two. The Keeley Compressor Pro is a highly versatile compressor in any situation or style of playing.

Worth it...

For those of you that know what a compressor can do after the distortion pedal (guitar knob volume cleanup), this does the trick. I wanted a "3rd" channel for my Mark 5 35. I use a distortion box that is well known for it's ability to clean up but needed to boost the volume of the clean up while taming the loudness of the cranked guitar. Works perfectly. Set it forget it. After… read more some spending a bit of time with this, I was able to have the same setting used after the pedal even with the pedal off. Pure clean sounds have the extra bit of oomph without getting dirty.

Clean and spanky!

I bought this for my bass, but it works fantastic on my guitars as well. This is my first compressor limiter (I have a couple compressor sustainers) and the Keeley Compressor Pro is fantastic. It's versatile and sounds great. I was surprised at how great the auto attack/release function is. I highly recommend this compressor.
