The Emma Electronic Transmorgrifier is an analogue compressor built to take everything good about classic pedal compressors and fix their usual issues. Your signal gets a real squeeze without losing core tone.
Classic Compression, Modernised
Often musicians need a couple compressors to cover all situations. A subtle studio style leveller for one job, an aggressive squash for another.
The Transmorgrifier folds the best qualities of those classic designs into one pedal. It also tackles the shortcomings that come with vintage circuits.
The Ratio control is core to that. Dialled it back andyou get transparent, studio compression that levels your dynamics without colouring your tone. Push it further and you move into squashed territory suited to chicken-picking and heavily compressed country style tones.
The wide frequency response means it holds up well on bass and other instruments too.
