The Empirical Labs Distressor is a modern classic hardware compressor. Known for its versatility, the Distressor can push a vocal to the front of the mix or squash a drum room mic, while adding tasteful analog distortion (if you want it).

Then there's the EL7X FATSO -- the Full Analog Tape Simulator and Optimizer. With two linkable channels for processing in stereo, this digitally controlled analog processor gives you four compression modes, distortion generation, a dynamic low-pass filter, and more. Plug in to the FATSO to add back the warmth that digital recording rigs lack.

Ready to add studio-quality analog compression, EQ, and more to your recording/mixing rig? Order Empirical Labs gear at zZounds and get it ASAP with our lightning-fast shipping and interest-free payment plans!
