Blind Squirrel Compressor

You will find the tone you are looking for with the Schu-Tone Blind Squirrel Compressor. The Blind Squirrel is an optical compressor that will even out your attack, lengthen out your notes and add a studio-like quality to your sound. The compressor circuit is an optical one, and the optical-ness of the compression keeps the base of your tone intact. The switch sets the two modes of the pedal, the compressor and the sustainer. In the compressor mode, there are plenty of compressed sounds to be had, from light compression to even out your attack and dynamics, all the way up to super-squashed tones that work well in a chickin’ pickin’ situation. The Sustain mode works a little differently than a traditional compressor. Unlike a traditional compressor that really cuts back on the dynamics of your playing, the sustain mode keeps the dynamics in, while still providing some subtle compression to really let your notes sing. The Tone control takes your sound from its neutral state to boosting or cutting the mids as you turn it around the dial. If you are looking for a studio-type compressor in a small form factor, the Schu-Tone Blind Squirrel is what you have been looking for!
