Carl MartinComp Limiter Compressor Effects Pedal
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Carl Martin’s Comp Limiter puts compression and limiting into a compact analog pedal with a deliberately simple control layout. Threshold and Response are preset, leaving Compression to set the amount of processing and Level to place the result in the mix. That makes on-the-fly adjustment straightforward while retaining the unit’s studio-quality compression design. Its DC/DC converter runs the circuit internally at ±12V, while the pedal takes a regular external 9V DC, 200mA supply.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want adjustable compression amount and output level in a compact pedalboard format.
- Making compression changes on the fly without separate Threshold or Response controls.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need manual control of the Threshold and Response settings.
