Zipper MKII

Optical Compressor

When listening to "optical compressor" the first thought that comes up is one : the old and unique "Urei® LA3A®".

The purpose was to design an optical compressor like this monster but at compact size!!!

....and the result is the "Zipper MKII"

100% Handmade distinct and quiet big headroom optical compressor.

Gives power and punch to your sound without changing the character of your tone at all.

Can be used as a maximizer with the compress control up to 9 o'clock.

"Gilmourish" sounds are very easy to reproduce.

Adjust the compression ratio from the dedicated toggle switch for between Hard/Soft . "Hard" is 10:1 ratio and "Soft" is 4:1 ratio

A high end Pro-Audio compressor at your feet!
