Like Having Several Different Compressors In One! The Emprical Labs Distressor is a unique analog compressor that allows the user to add 2nd or 3rd order harmonic distortion to the signal, emulating tape saturation and the classic tube compressor sound of the '60's and '70's. The Distressor also offers advanced sidechain EQ, eight unique curves and Empirical Labs' exclusive "Binary Stepped Interface" providing hundreds of options with just a few control settings. Customer Reviews  Crazy Good   by aaron from kansas city, September 22, 2008 Music Background:  recording engineer “This thing sound good on everything, vocals, drums, guitar. It is definitely worth the price.” • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "If you were to make a list of the best-sounding compressors of all time, the Distressor would be somewhere at the top. Incredible on vocals, drums, bass, anything really. When you walk into a professional recording studio, this unit is always in the rack and in use... always." Trent Thompson   "Whether you're shooting for the speed of a VCA, the personality of an FET, the warmth of an opto, or the coloration of a tube compressor, the Distressor never falls short. Add to this the Distressor's unique "Nuke" ratio and programmable 2nd- and 3rd-order harmonics and you have an instant studio classic!"
