[Reach the pinnacle of sound. A studio-grade analog-optical compressor for your pedalboard.] The Highpoint Analog Optical Compressor is a premium compressor designed for players wh o demand meticulous attention to detail in their sound. It delivers rich sustain, natural dynamics control, and a high-quality analog feel. It elevates your performance to the next level without sacrificing subtle nuances. A console-style 10-LED VU meter, a comprehensive set of controls, and overwhelming headroom and dynamic range thanks to ±15V internal power. Highpoint is more than just a compressor; it's the foundation of your sound. [Studio Grade Optical Compression] Highpoint employs an analog-optical circuit with smooth attack and release characteristics. Single notes become more lustrous and sustained, and chords gain a natural, breathing-like breadth. From subtle dynamics correction to rich sustain enhancement, it delivers depth and dimensionality reminiscent of high-end studio equipment. [Precision Dynamics Control] Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Blend, and Make-Up Gain can be controlled individually. The Blend control provides authentic parallel compression, allowing you to freely add sustain and harmonic thickness while maintaining the attack of your picking. It allows you to achieve the same level of detailed setup as studio rack equipment, right at your feet. 【±15V Internal Power Architecture】 By using ±15V drive internally, it achieves high headroom and a wide dynamic range. Even with strong compression settings, the sound image is less likely to become distorted, and the definition, punch, and harmonic components are firmly maintained. It also provides a natural presence even when left on all the time. [Console Style LED Metering] Equipped with a 10-LED meter. You can instantly switch between Input, Output, and Gain Reduction, visually observing the compression behavior in real time. It offers an operating feel very similar to that of a small studio console. [Sidechain High-Pass Filter] It features a sidechain high-pass filter to suppress excessive compression caused by low frequencies below 160Hz. It delivers clearer, tighter compression while maintaining the low-end definition and punch, even with bass guitars and down-tuned guitars.Retail • Analog optical compression • ±15V internal power • Threshold / Ratio / Attack / Release controls • Blend (parallel compression) Make-Up Gain • 10-LED VU meter • Input/Output/Gain Reduction display switching • Sidechain High-Pass Filter (160Hz) True Bypass Show more
