#Keeley compressor 4 knob manual pro#

The first thing I noticed about Keeley’s GC-2 is just as apparent here, the Compressor Pro is incredibly transparent. While there have been a few times a pedal I was excited about let me down, this is one of those situations where a pedal met and surpassed my expectations. Visit Keeley Electronics for more info about the Compressor Pro.

True-Bypass – No tone or signal loss when OFF.

Set to Auto ON for worry-free performance and automatic Attack and Release times.

Auto Mode – Program dependent Attack and Release times.

Hard/Soft Knee Compression – Hard Compression for limiting or adding sustain, soft knee or Komfort Kompression for gentle compression, keeping performances lively and natural sounding without potential phase issues in parallel, or blending style compression.

Exact RMS Analysis (ERA) – Senses the true RMS value of the input program material such as your guitar, bass or drum machine.

Threshold LED Indicator – Bi-Color LED to indicate when compression is initiated and released.

Gain Reduction Levels of -1dB to -20dB are indicated.

Compression LED Display – 7 Segment LED display for fast and accurate metering of compression and gain reduction.

Device controls for Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Gain, Knee, & Auto.

Then onward to our Keeley Electronics Compressor Pro review to find out if it’s the best compression pedal around. A handy row of Gain Reduction LED’s and a Threshold indicator LED also gives you a visual indication of what’s going on.Ī summary of specs and features is below. There are also dedicated Attack & Release controls and a convenient Auto mode for allowing the Attack & Release to respond naturally to your playing without being affected by the values of their respective knobs. In addition to the GC-2’s default Hard Knee setting, the Compressor Pro also offers a Soft Knee option for smoother compression. 4320 chip, 1:1 through Infinity:1 Ratio range, and similar Gain & Threshold controls to the GC-2. The Compressor Pro features the same THAT Corp. The Compressor Pro shouldn’t be mistaken as simply an upgraded “Pro” version of Keeley’s original C4 Compressor as it actually has more in common with the GC-2 but with a greatly increased feature-set. It was finally released shortly after, and now Keeley Electronics is making compression pedal history all over again. While I knew this would be a pedal to keep an eye on, it would be yet another long year before Keeley would show it again at Winter NAMM 2015 in near-complete form. Keeley Electronics first showed the Compressor Pro and Winter NAMM 2014. The Ultimate Keeley Compressor Has Arrived

And this is a pedal that more than lives up to the expectations I had for it. Now comes the Keeley Electronics Compressor Pro, the pinnacle of Robert Keeley’s long-standing experience making quality compression pedals. Not content with having just one outstanding pedal in that category, Keeley released the GC-2 Limiting Amplifier, a dbx 160 style pedal that offers studio flavored compression/limiting. Keeley Electronics’ most famous pedal is the C4 Compressor, a Ross Compressor inspired gem that is still one of the best compressor pedals available today.
