The Xotic SP Compressor is the latest in a rich line of outstanding guitar effect from boutique pedal makers Xotic USA. Xotic have become world famous for their preamps and other subtle tone shaping pedals (as opposed to full on warping effects). That makes them the favourite of discerning gutiarists that aren't looking to make a fuss just to get the perfect tone! The SP Compressor continues in that tradition by offering huge flexibility and more importantly incredible quality sound whether you're looking for subtle transparent compression or pumping pop tones. The combination of the 3 way intensity switch and the blend knob give you all the control you will probably need to dial in a variety of usuable compressor tones before you even delve into the 4 interal dip switches that let you further tailor the SP Compressor to your guitars pickups and your amps tone!

Here's what Xotic say about the SP Compressor:

The new Xotic SP Compressor offers the same OTA (operational transconductance amplifier) technology used in what many guitar players consider the best compressor ever, the Ross Compressor.

Our new SP Compressor has superb tone quality featuring a wide variety of compressor tones from vintage,to subtle, to modern and more. It's super flexible and features a dry blend knob, up to +15dB of boost and an internal dip switch for attack control.

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Compressor — A compressor evens out the dynamics of a guitar signal by reducing the difference between loud and quiet notes. It adds sustain, tightens the overall sound, and can enhance clarity and consistency, making it especially useful for clean playing, funk rhythms, and smooth lead tones.. Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own..
