Strymon Compadre Dual Voice Compressor & Boost
Bring out your amp’s character in ways you never thought possible. Compadre’s Class A JFET input circuit, studio quality analog compression, and musically voiced analog boost circuits all work together to make your amp sound like it was just modified by a world-class boutique amp designer.
Compadre gives you everything you need to shape your front end tone, and nothing to slow you down. Auto makeup gain and auto threshold mean that all you have to do is turn up the Compression knob to dial in the desired amount. Compadre’s wide variety of tone shaping features are all designed to easily sound great across a wide variety of settings.
Choose between two compression circuits, each with its own unique character. Studio mode gives you the smooth, beautifully transparent compression typically found in the best vintage studio rack units. For a harder compression effect typical of classic guitar pedals, Compadre’s Squeeze mode is designed to deliver heavy compression with maximum sustain.
Compadre gives you two distinct analog boost circuits: a clean boost, and a dirty boost that introduces soft clipping, characteristic of an overdrive pedal. The selectable boost EQ ensures the perfect compliment to any guitar and amp combination. Add sparkle and shine with a treble boost, fatten your tone with the midrange boost, or level up the full frequency range with flat mode.
Integrate Compadre into an elaborate MIDI pedalboard or use it in an ultra-compact setup for easy travel. Via MIDI, Compadre can store and recall up to 300 presets. Connect a MIDI EXP cable to the FAV/MIDI jack to access these features.
Features
Premium analog VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) compressor circuits
Two voicing options: smooth studio compression and hard pedal style compression
Independently controlled clean or dirty boost circuit with 3 EQ options
Dirty boost option provides overdrive when boost is engaged
DRY Knob lets you blend the dry signal with the compressed signal to preserve attack transients
High impedance ultra low-noise discrete Class A JFET preamp input
Low impedance mono output
Output VCA allows Compadre to function as a volume pedal when a standard TRS expression pedal plugged into the dedicated Volume jack
Compatible with MiniSwitch for remote selection of a Favourite preset
Compatible with MultiSwitch Plus for remote selection of 3 presets
Full featured MIDI control. Access to 300 presets and remote parameter control via quarter-inch TRS. (requires Strymon MIDI EXP Cable or MIDI > TRS interface)
Selectable True Bypass (electromechanical relay switching) or ultra low-noise Buffered Bypass
Strong and lightweight anodised dark red aluminium chassis
9V DC power supply included. Power requirements: maximum 9 volts DC centre-negative, with a minimum of 150mA of current
Compressor Signal/Noise: 109 dB typical
Designed and built in the USA
