Ashdown Engineering - FS-MACCHIATO
Description
Fine-tuned to bass legend Guy Pratt's every demand, the Macchiato Compressor uses a personalized compression ratio (Guy's special blend) with 3-bands of available EQ: Dark, Medium and Light or Bass, Middle and Treble, if you want.
The Macchiato Compressor also contains a Subsonic Filter switch that reduces specific frequencies which can sometimes interfere with elements of the stage and can damage speakers in ported cabinets through over excursion. The compression that's available from Guy's Signature pedal actually works as a boosted EQ, which really makes the bass sing. It's one of the tightest compressors available.
The Macchiato retains the expression you put into the playing but simply compacts the dynamic range by a set ratio, irrespective of the overall level.
