Finally the missing link in the chain!
A recording studio compressor in a pedal!
It might seem limited in its features, but it actually gives me everything I need (and was missing).
Before turning it on i thought I had a great sound: in reality it was good, and it became even better with the Airchild at the beginning of the chain.
As someone else said, it's like having your own sound, but more
Happy
P.s. Pedal always on!
P.p.s. Ah, no squish ;)

maybe really intended for guitar
I gave into the hype that is being raised about this pedal on certain bass specific online forum. it is not a bad pedal at all, just not what I am looking for.
the pedal seems well made, feels really solid - except for the plastic knobs: especially the upper pair seems extra flimsy. I was a bit disappointed to find zero manual for the device. sure, it's simple enough, but it helps. instead, I had to figure out certain quirks on my own.
after you step on the switch (audible click), the pedal is turned on - that is the only LED present, and it is only to let you know the power status: it does not tell you the amount of compression or whether the threshold has been crossed. minus points in my book. next, you are left wondering whether the blend is wet-dry or dry-wet, because all controls use only a numbered scale. minus points again. btw., wet is 10, you are welcome. while we are here, the threshold operates the same way, i.e. turning the knob CW delivers more compression (I think there are more things happening than just threshold being moved), which is the opposite of what I'm used when the control is labeled as threshold (which you lower for more compression, as more signal will trigger the compressor sooner). but that's ok. we also have the output control to bring back some lost volume. the last thing that I had high hopes for is the tone control, which is a tilt EQ (think Becos or Diamond compressor pedals, and many other devices). my problem is that the control is:
1) too sensitive, i.e. turning it more than 50% either way yields an unusable sound for me;
2) the control is post EVERYTHING, i.e. it affects the signal AFTER compression and blending. it would have been so much more interesting if it had an option to only apply it to the compressed signal instead.
the compression itself is rather nice, but I found I tend to set it to certain settings (for both bass and guitar) and leave it there, I do not find it versatile. also, many times after I found a sound I liked, I turned it off to compare, and I just preffered the uncompressed sound more... so, I'll keep my eye on the next incarnation of this pedal.
