Description:

 

When we released our original Compressor back in 2011, it quickly became a favourite among guitar and bass players alike who were searching for something more than the typical oversimplified controls found on most compressor pedals. Now, based on our users’ valuable feedback, we’ve taken everything great about our original Compressor and made it even better. 

On top of the full range of features and controls normally only seen in high end studio equipment, such as input and gain reduction metering, independent attack and release controls, a mix knob for parallel compression, and an external sidechain insert, we’ve now added a ‘tilt’ tone eq control, and a selectable sidechain high pass filter built into the Compressor’s detection circuit. Oh, and the whole package is now half the size and available in two snazzy colours! 

Features

  • All Analog Signal Path - no digitals in here!
  • Extremely Transparent - Add dynamic control without altering the original tone of your instrument
  • 3 Compression Ratios - 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1 ratios offer lots of flexibility
  • Attack and Release Control - allows for ultimate control over the compression characteristics
  • Mix - Blend uncompressed signal in with the compressed signal for parallel compression, New York Style!
  • Metering - Meter both gain reduction and input levels on separate meters.
  • Tone - New tone knob, a "tilt" sytle tone knob centered at 500Hz to nail that perfect tone.
  • Sidechain Send/Return- 3.5mm TRS jack send and return for sidechain compresson.  
  • Sidechain High Pass Filter - No need to add a high pass filter to the sidechain, now there is one built in that can be toggled off or set to 120 or 240Hz. 
  • True Display LEDs - Bright multi-color LEDs always let you know what the compressor is doing.
  • Power On Bypassed or Engaged - For musicians that never want to turn their compressor off. 
  • True Bypass - The Empress Compressor employs true bypass, so you can be sure that it's not affecting the signal when disengaged.
  • Small Size - New enclosure approximately half the size of the original compressor, which is delightfully small when considering all the features packed into this unit.
  • Beautiful Case - It has a sparkle you can't deny, in blue or silver!

    Perfect “Hair-Doing” Command Chair
    Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels), Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
    As a physician, mom, and military officer, my mornings already feel like a tactical operation: breakfast, cartoons, and hair time before we roll out. My old high‑back desk chair turned every ponytail into a wrestling match with the chair back. This low‑back, armless chair has officially become my hair‑doing command center. What I love: • Low back + no arms = easy kid access. My daughter sits facing the desk, snuggled in her blanket, eating breakfast and watching TV. I can stand right behind her and actually reach her hair without a chair back or armrests blocking my elbows. No more asking her to twist sideways and slowly slide off the chair while I chase her head. • Wide, comfy seat for both of us. The seat is generous and supportive with thick cushions. I have plenty of room and my daughter is perfectly comfortable for our whole morning routine. She’s happy, I’m not bent at weird angles, and the whole process is smoother (and quieter!). • Looks and feels more expensive than it is. The faux leather upholstery is gorgeous in person and feels soft and substantial, not flimsy. It blends right in with our bedroom furniture and doesn’t scream “office chair.” • Thoughtful packaging & painless assembly. Everything arrived in perfect condition, very well protected in the box. The instructions were clear, all hardware was labeled, and it took me under 10 minutes to assemble by myself. • Glides & adjusts smoothly. The chair rolls, swivels, and raises/lowers easily and quietly. No squeaks, no sticking. I can move her closer to the desk or spin her toward me with one hand while holding a hairbrush in the other. A quick heads‑up: The chair is on the larger side (which I personally love), so if you’re looking for a tiny, petite chair, check the measurements. For me, the extra space is exactly what I wanted. Bottom line: If you also use your bedroom desk as a hair‑doing station, homework hub, or breakfast bar, this chair is a game‑changer. Comfortable, stylish, easy to assemble, and priced competitively with similar chairs—while actually making our chaotic mornings run a little smoother.

    The perfect desk chair for sitting cross-legged—plus it rolls!
    Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels), Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
    This chair is absolutely amazing if you like to sit cross-legged while working. The seat is incredibly wide, giving you plenty of room to get comfortable without feeling cramped against the armrests. The smooth faux leather is awesome. I am honestly impressed with the price vs quality. The padding is nice for my 13 yr old daughter to sit cross legged on. The cushion is thick and supportive, and it has held its shape really well without flattening out. I also love that this specific model has wheels—a lot of these wide cross-legged chairs come with flat bases, so having the mobility to roll around my desk space is a huge plus. It looks high-end, feels sturdy, and was very straightforward to assemble. 10/10 recommend!

    Great value and chair!
    Color: Fabric-grey, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
    Great chair and value! I got this to use with my work desk. It’s not super padded and I don’t know how long it will last, but it’s comfortable and the height is adjustable. It feels solid and my teenager was able to put it together with the instructions. It looks nicer with my desk than I thought it would. The fact I can sit “cross cross apple sauce” was the most important feature!

    Comfortable, Stylish, and So Easy to Assemble!
    Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
    I recently purchased this chair and honestly, I’m very impressed! It took me longer to unpack everything than it did to actually assemble it. The setup was quick, simple, and the video instructions on YouTube made it even easier. The chair is super comfortable, rolls smoothly, and fits perfectly underneath my vanity without taking up too much space. I know it’s marketed as a “cross-legged” chair for younger users, but at 57 years old, sitting cross-legged isn’t exactly happening for me anymore 😂 — and I still absolutely love it. It’s stylish, comfortable, sturdy, and perfect for everyday use. I would definitely buy this chair again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cute and functional vanity or office chair!
