Why We Love This Product!

Your Versatile Compressor Pick!

The Emprical Labs Distressor is a one-of-a-kind analog compressor that allows the user to add 2nd or 3rd order harmonic distortion to the signal, emulating tape saturation and the classic tube compressor sound of the '60's and '70's. The Distressor also offers cutting-edge sidechain EQ, eight one-of-a-kind curves and Empirical Labs' exclusive "Binary Stepped Interface" providing hundreds of options with just a few control settings.
