EarthQuaker Devices The Warden V2 - Optical Compressor

The Warden is an analog, optical compressor with a feature set usually reserved for studio grade units. Like all EarthQuaker Devices pedals it is built only with high grade components. The Warden is, thanks to its six controls (Tone, Level, Sustain, Ratio, Attack and Release), an extremely versatile and adjustable compressor pedal. The Warden will allow everything from a heavy squash with fast attack and release to barely there subtle compression. The 9V power supply voltage will be internally converted to 18V giving loads of headroom and extended dynamism. The optical electronic circuit delivers a compression with more character and the Tone control allows for treble boosts and cuts. The Warden is true bypass and handmade in Ohio/USA. The Warden V2 uses silent relay-based soft touch switching. Audio will not pass without power.
