T.C. has been teasing a new product\u00c2\u00a0for a little while now, but it was only a couple weeks ago that they officially announced what this new thing is. \u00c2\u00a0Well, here it is – the HyperGravity Compressor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, I got my hands on Walrus’ Deep Six compressor. It was a step up from\u00c2\u00a0what I previous used (Boss CS-2), with the “blend” knob being one of the more notable\u00c2\u00a0features for me. But \u00c2\u00a0I realized that I did have to sacrifice the high frequencies a bit. It was a compromise, but it wasn’t that bad. But when the marketing video for the HyperGravity came out, I was immediately intrigued by T.C.’s (usually) digital approach at manipulating sound. This compressor is a multi-band compressor. Don’t ask me about this, ’cause I only know as much as I can gather by the wording of this type of compression. Seemed like a good thing, and I really wanted it!<\/p>\n

Well, it came in the mail yesterday! I had the opportunity to play through it (at bedroom levels) and it was exactly what I\u00c2\u00a0expected. The highs in my signal are retained and I get a ton of flexibility.\u00c2\u00a0Unless someone makes something new in the world of compressors that I feel warrants the purchase of a new pedal, I think I\u00c2\u00a0can confidently say that this one will be the last one (for a while, at least). I’m probably wrong…who knows.<\/p>\n

here’s Tore, introducing the pedal to the world with his calm Jesus-looking face.<\/p>\n
