Amazing Compressor
James3132 29.11.2024
Have tried a lot of compressors over the years and never really been 100% happy. Purchased the Empress Effects 'Blue Sparkle' about a month ago and waited to post a review as i wanted to get familiar with the pedal, before doing so.
Empress suggest some settings in the manual to get you started, and from there its a joy to alter those setting, and hear the difference it can make to your sound. I particularly like the 'MIX' knob, allowing you to mix wet and dry signals. I've used it on both active and passive basses and now that i am familiarizing my self with the pedal is can easily dial in the sound i want.
The unit itself is of excellent build quality, and looks great on my board.
More detailed reviews are to be found on is the site i used to do my research and would I highly recommend it, prior to making a purchase.
I'm extremely happy with my purchase. Thanks to Thomann for excellent service and delivery , as usual

Eén van de beste
AlwaysOffCourse 09.01.2023
Gekocht voor bas. De uitgebreide controls, goede sound, extreem stevig gebouwd, kortom 1 van de beste compressors op de markt. De enorm duidelijke metering zorgt er ook voor dat je je compressie echt kan finetunen. De optionele sidechain is een leuke plus, maar zelf nog niet gebruikt.

Beautifully sounding compressor
VillemR 26.06.2023
It's a very clean and detailed compressor and gives you fine control of your sound. You can probably follow the examples from the booklet, just plug-n-play and sound great, but I feel I will be fine tuning this pedal for a while to get the exact control that I want.
Definitely recommend it.

Do not look any further!
Anonymous 30.05.2023
Research was done, reviews were read and all options i need are in finger reach. Transparent, agressive if You want it, sidechain option is a killer and tone shaping is spot on.
Save your self some time and tone and get it.

very very happy!
Luk LaGrande 21.09.2023
This is my first Empress Effects pedal and I'm pretty sure it's not gonna be the last one.

The building quality is very good...it's sturdy and solid..not just the case, but also the knobs etc.

It has many features that are not a surprise for me... In fact, they're some of the reasons that convinced me to choose this one...the wet/dry knob is one of them, but also all the "standard" compressor controls (attack, release, etc), and the input/GR meters.

What surprised me is the "tone colour" selector. I knew it was there of course, but I didn't imagine it could change the sound so much, and I think it's a very good thing to have different options for different situations and different instruments.

Oh, and it sounds amazing btw!! :)

Best I've used
bassheavy 29.01.2024
I've been playing for a long time and played many compressors, some very nices ones, and i have to say the Empress beats them all.

So well built, obvious controls and well thought out features.

I found it to dial in a great sound just from the manual examples which are also great starting points to find your own sound.

There's a reason you are seeing these pop up on so many pedal boards!

Pretty amazing
antonio.one 31.05.2024
I play very dynamic compositions on a Music Man Stingray. I've always wondered what a compressor would do to my sound if I played finger style, muted thumb and slap/pop in quick succession. I have to say this is my first compression effect pedal and with minimum config it just works wonders giving me a very even output without losing feel as I can mix in the original signal with the compressed signal. Great product all around!
