Detail 01
Three-band EQ: Dark, Medium, Light
Lets you address bass, middle, and treble ranges through the pedal’s EQ controls.

Independent shopping perspective
Guy Pratt’s Macchiato is a bass compression pedal built around a fixed personalized ratio, narrowing dynamic range without that ratio changing with overall level. Its Dark, Medium, and Light EQ bands correspond to bass, middle, and treble, allowing the compression to function as a boosted EQ. A switchable subsonic filter reduces particular low frequencies that can interfere with stage elements and contribute to over-excursion in ported cabinets.
