PC-2A Photo-Optical Tube Compressor

The new gold standard in musical, natural and quiet compression – The PC-2A compressor wraps your guitar signal in velvet. The PC-2A is a true vintage studio compressor in a stompbox – there are no VCA chips, opamps or budget components in the signal path which is 100% analog and built on a hand selected photo-cell, polyester coupling capacitors, precision resistors (with silver/palladium contacts) and NOS (new old stock) tube operating at real amp plate voltages all on a gold-plated printed circuit board.
