Keeley Compressor Plus *Free Shipping in the USA*

Description

The Keeley Compressor is the most popular boutique compressor in the
world.  With well over 50,000 compressors built in our shop we have an
expert understanding of compression, limiting, and sustain.  We know
what it takes to make an instrument sound like it’s been professionally
recorded.  We know how to make your guitar jump from the mix. We know
how to make it fun and easy to play.  Keeley Compression is how.  The
Keeley Compressor Plus is the first true advancement in our 2 and 4 knob
compressor line.  The new features are simple and straight forward.
Now there is a simple Release Switch that is tuned for single coils or
humbuckers.  No more wondering if you have the attack or release set
right.  Your humbuckers will have all the attack and punch that they
should.  Our team designed a gorgeous sounding Tone Control that
emphasizes the most sensitive harmonics that can be lost in compression.
The Compressor Plus now sports a Blend Control that retains the peaks
in your playing and more importantly the proper phasing of your guitar
signal.  The Keeley Compressor Plus offers the same gorgeous push of
frequencies and sweetening of tone that the old comps gave you, now with
the flexibility to handle any instrument.
The Keeley Compressor Plus is a compressor with an
expander/sustainer.  Not only does it act as a regular compressor,
limiting the peaks in your playing, it adds more and more gain as notes
fade out.  Now you have sustain.  Nothing worse that a note or a bend
that has died before it’s time; the Keeley Compressor Plus adds just the
right amount of sustain and expressive bloom to your notes.
The new Release Switch on the Keeley Compressor Plus is designed to
make it very easy to transition between single coil and humbucker
guitars.  Humbuckers have more average energy than single coils and this
can cause compressors to stay in “compression mode” for a lot longer.
This can make any series of notes you play sound dull.  With the quick
release of the new Compressor Plus, your humbuckers stay true sounding
and each note retains attack and definition.
The Tone Control is our own design taken from analog delays and other
vintage effects.  Those effects used an emphasis circuit to recover
treble and highs after they went through the BBD or other analog delay
lines.  We took that circuit and made it into a full fledged tone
control!  We found that it was the perfect way to gently add back in
highs lost in the compression process.
The Blend Control is a way of getting the peaks to come through and
having sustain at the same time.  So if you want sustain more than
peak-limiting, this style of Manhattan Compression is for you!  Keep all
the peaks and transients with the Blend and Tone Controls while adding
sustain on the back end.  Heaven!
This compressor isn’t just for heavy funk or chicken picking anymore.
The new Compressor Plus is for players wanting a smooth, subtle wash
from their guitar.  Remove just the right amount of peaks for an ambient
layer and then blend in the right amount of treble for a nice shimmer
to your guitar.  Use with your favorite fuzz to create a wall of tone
like you’ve only heard on records.  Looping has never been easier than
with this compressor.  Consider it an essential tool when creating loops
that sound well balanced.  Forget it all and use the Compressor Plus
for the best amp boost you’ve heard.  Nothing pushes an amp better than
the Keeley Compressor Plus.
The new Keeley Compressor Plus is the result of us specializing in
compressors for over 15 years. Chief Engineer and founder Robert Keeley
said, “Compression was the first effect I found that was hard to make
sound good off the shelf, so I set out to create the best sounding
compression effect possible.”  We have it down to a science but still
treat it like art.  Since it is at the core of what we do, we can offer
it for an incredible price now.  The Keeley Compressor Plus is
completely made in the United States.  Come by our shop and watch the
magic happen. We didn’t just start making compressors to look good
alongside co-branded coffee mugs and shirts and hats.  We’ve worked with
and listened to the pros that have had the the original compressor on
their board for 10 to 15 years and found out what it would take to keep
it on their board for another 10, 20, or 30 years…. Add the Compressor
Plus to your rig, you and your guitar will be singing for days.
