You may be thinking... "Another compressor?" We get it! Fortunately, the minds at Bondi deliver a compressor that may get you excited. Compression is a really tough effect to get right, since you are cutting your tone and dynamics at the interest of less noise and more consistency... (less peaks and valleys). Often, the bi-product of compression is the unfortunate loss of playing dynamics. Squish As nails it with this release... and puts pristine control back in your hands! Sure, you can squish your tone to oblivion... which is handled beautifully. But you can also compress your tone in such subtle ways that you won't believe the nuances and detail that will gracefully float out of your amp.
From Bondi: "At its core, the Squish As features a best-in-class Blackmer® Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA) and True RMS Detector. Optical and JFET compressors are popular for their musical character; however, this character often comes with increased distortion, limited dynamic range, and a somewhat unpredictable transfer function. The high-end VCA and True RMS Detector deliver natural, high-fidelity dynamics processing."
Speaking of playing dynamics... Zoar (from EQD) delivers extraordinary touch sensitivity. While also grinding noise. In this one small box, you are getting an incredible amount of gain tones... Subtle OD to blow-your-hair-back with a wall of sound Distortion/Fuzz. This one packs it all with a few simple controls. Available now!
From Earthquaker: "Zoar is a medium-high gain discrete distortion (using only transistors; no opamps or diodes in here!) that has that touch sensitive amp-like quality to it that everyone craves. It has been finely tuned to create a highly tweakable hi-fi and modern sounding distortion, but with the ghosts of old school circuitry to deliver a grind that is both instantly familiar and delightfully unique. Want that defined sparkle and tightness of an overdrive? This has it. Want that low-medium gain fuzz that’s perfect for drop tuned guitars and basses? This has it. Want to be able to dial in and control every nuance of your tone from jangly on-the-verge of break up to blowing the walls out heavy saturation? Then this is the pedal for you."
