Press Stereo Compressor Pedal

Polyend Press

Perfect for gluing together a fleet of grooveboxes or thickening up a pedalboard effects chain, Press from Polyend is a fully analog, stereo compressor with exceptional sound and a deep feature set for dialing in your dynamics. With a robust, all-aluminum build and a sound quality rivaling dedicated studio effects, Press brings the warm and tight response of stereo rack compressors to small desktop set-ups, pedalboards, and live rigs. Whether you are adding subtle compression to help enhance detail and nuance of an instrument sound, or cranking the ratio up to a hard limiter at the end of your signal chain, Press delivers fully featured control to empower your best sound.

A cut above most pedal format compressors, Press features a unique stereo sidechain control that implements low and high pass filters to reject problematic frequencies that you don't want triggering the sidechain effect. For example, when sidechaining to a kick drum, you can filter out the booming low end to focus Press's response on the high end transients in your kick for a tighter sidechain response. These filters may act on either the input signal or external stereo sidechain thru input, giving you multiple options to shape dynamic content. In addition to these input filters, Press also delivers a highly useful Tilt EQ for rebalancing the spectral response of the wet signal, giving you impressive control over your final tone. If you're craving dynamic control over your stereo sources or end of chain mix, Press from Polyend is a fantastic addition to any arsenal of effects.
