The Atlas compressor offers a comprehensive collection of compression circuits that perfectly capture the sound and feel of the industry's most sought-after compressors. It features six different compression styles, ranging from classic compressors such as the now-discontinued Diamond optical compressor, to high-end rackmount models such as the 1176 and LA2A.

Presentation
The Atlas contains so many different types of compression that it could serve as a tourist guide through the history of compression equipment.
First stop: classic squashers like the legendary Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer and the excellent (but discontinued) Diamond Compressor.
Next stop: ubiquitous, universal studio rack equipment like the smooth LA2A optical compressor and the ultra-responsive 1176 FET compressor.
Finally, Peak, RMS, VCA and Dual compression, and an integrated Expander circuit...
the Atlas has it all and does it well.

To find out more...
- 6 types of compression: the Atlas offers many different styles of compression, with sounds inspired by studio racks and classic effects pedals.
- LA2A Optical Compression: A faithful recreation of an electroluminescent panel combined with a photoresistor and the resulting warm, smooth compression that has been the studio standard since the 1950s.
- 1176 Feedback FET Compression: Based on the solid-state FET compressor known for its full body and ultra-fast attack.
- LED Optical Compressor: Inspired by pedals that operate on a similar concept to the LA2A, but replace the electroluminescent panel with an LED and a faster, dirtier response.
- Dual Compressors: use Atlas' dual compressors in a variety of ways: in serial, parallel or band-split mode, which provides a separate set of controls for high and low frequencies.
- Studio Level Compression Controls: access all the essential compression parameters, including Feedback, Ratio, Attack, Release, Makeup Gain, Mix and Tone, either using the pedal buttons or the Neuro Editor.
- Special Bass mode: at the touch of a button, quickly convert Atlas into a special Bass mode with compressor motors specially optimised for bass.
- Auto Makeup Gain: Compose sounds quickly. Atlas automatically increases or decreases the make-up gain according to the amount of compression.
