Compressor Jr

The Diamond Compressor Jr is a compact optical compressor pedal designed to provide simple yet powerful control over dynamics and tone. It features a Vactrol opto-isolator variable resistance path, similar to high-end studio compressors, for smooth attack and decay characteristics. The pedal is equipped with an EQ section that allows users to sculpt their tone, along with an Attack switch that enables a transition from ultra-snappy compression to softer, transparent compression. The pedal also includes a custom spec'd, US- made opto-isolator and modern, quiet switching. Additionally, it offers an all-analog, Burr-Brown audio path, top-mounted jacks, and 9-18VDC operation with relay-based true bypass switching. The Diamond Compressor Jr is designed and built entirely in Montreal, Quebec, and is suitable for guitarists seeking studio-grade compression in a compact pedal enclosure.
