Compression That Works With Your Acoustic
Many compressors designed for electric guitar can strip the life and dynamics from an acoustic instrument. The Acousticomp's carefully tuned optical-style circuit is different — it works with the natural transients and resonance of your acoustic guitar, smoothing out the peaks while preserving the warmth, detail, and expressiveness that makes acoustic playing so compelling. A subtle but transformative addition to any acoustic signal chain.
