The ROSS Compressor is an OTA-based, vintage style
compressor. This pedal is a faithful reproduction of the
coveted “Era 2” Gray Box ROSS Compressor circuit, possibly
the most legendary compressor of its kind.
CONTROLS
“Level” controls volume (right is louder, left is quieter).
“Sustain” controls the amount of compression/sustain from
the circuit (right is more compressed/sustained, left is less
compressed/sustained). When activated, the side switch
toggles between two modes: Vintage and Bright. Bright
mode helps your guitar cut through the mix when you need
a little extra clarity for darker pickups or ampliers. The
footswitch activates the pedal via soft touch bypass
switching. The status LED indicates the circuit is active.
JACKS
The ¼” input and output jacks connect to your guitar and
amplier. The power jack accepts standard 9V DC Negative
Center power and consumes 37mA.
