Compressor... Palmer Deepressor?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi,
I'm looking to add a compressor to my rig that can give me some more sustain and some added warmth. I have a UA 610 for my studio and it sounds unbelievable! But I don't want to bring that out for gigs. Can anyone recommend a less expensive solution for the road? I have an extra single rack space (preferred) or I'm open to a pedal. I've heard good things about the Palmer Deepressor. Does anyone have any experience with that unit?

The Palmer was just announced at an EU trade show a few months ago, it is not available in any store yet. Lots of non-US websites have it listed, but NOT in stock. So the only people that will have used it would be people who have some inside connection at Palmer, like an employee or endorser--and naturally they would say good things.

Check the links in my sig for reviews of other comps.

Actually it is available since August hear in Germany, but I have not heard any experiences yet! I am intrigued by it, because it would be a great deal, if it is good!

I'm looking at the Deepressor as well, I like the simplistic design and I'm not willing to spend more than €100, so that leaves the Deepressor, Ashdown or BBE opto-stomp (or possibly EBS multicomp, although that one is borderline beyond my budget). Videos are few and far in between, and I can't seem to find any review on this one.

It is also available in my country, but I have interest in trying BBE Opto-Stomp or Carl Martin Classic Opto...But if anybody has a satisfying experience with it, I might add it to my selection as itīs within my price range.
