Martinsville, IN (November 8, 2016) — Wampler Pedals, creators of the original Ego Compressor TM , have received countless requests from players for a mini version of the pedal for saving space on cramped boards or ease of use on fly rigs. Brian’s solution comes in the form of the Mini Ego Compressor. The Mini Ego still showcases the same functionality and tone as its larger counterpart, having control over the output level and sustain, along with the blend knob for blending in the compressed signal with the clean signal. The attack and tone knobs have been converted to 2-way switches, with each selection on the switch correlating with popular settings based on the full size Ego Compressor. Engaging the tone switch adds presence to the compressed signal, giving a bit more clarity that can be lost with compression. The attack switch features a Soft attack and a hard attack mode. Soft attack makes the compressor not clamp on the signal as quickly, but provides added sustain as the note decays. The hard attack makes the compressor engage quicker, clamping down on the note closer to the initial attacked of the note for a more classic “pop and squish” that is known for funk and country playing.
