First of all, this compressor doesn't color the sound much, at least to my ears! On my clean parts its always on, because they sound louder and, actually, better with it. Thus, it quickly became a necessary part of my pedalboard. On the gainy parts, I use it sporadically, because my sound is usually already compressed. What makes it very, very adaptable is the Blend knob. It helps me retain the attack and the dynamics of my playing while using it! The tone knob works great bringing back some of the lost highs. I really like my Ego 😉

Not a bargain - but worth each cent

I'm performing country, blues and southern - so a compressor is needed (in my humble opinion).
Over the time I tried a lot of compressors from different brands but never got what I was looking for: A compressor which is nor surpressing the "twang" but delivering a nice and meaty sustain. In several rig rundowns of "sophisticated" musicians I could see the Wampler Ego - and finally I ordered it (with the certainty I could return it on problems). Delivered within 2 days (Thanks Thomann Team) I was able to try it: the settings are very flexible and allow exactly what I was looking for: This is the compressor for country music! I peeked again into several rig rundowns and "stole" the settings of this box from Brad Paisley and Brent Mason - perfect!

the compressor

It has its own sound I was already aware of it, but when I tried it this pedal was never ever turned off in my pedalboard. Even on minimum settings it has a smooth compression sound and you almost can't go wrong with dialing this thing. Works beautifully on bass also, I will try it on random things because this is a crazy good hardware compressor as well lol if you can, buy this

Very good , you will smile with the sustain.
First time I did a gig with this I sustained a note for 3-4 minutes during a set, just worked out RIGHT for the tune at the time LOL
