The Cory Wong Compressor is Wampler's signature pedal for Cory Wong: a compressor and a boost in one enclosure, each on its own footswitch. The compressor side has Volume, Sustain, Attack and Blend, plus Brian Wampler's Tone control for adding sparkle and chime. The Blend knob mixes your dry signal back in for parallel compression.
The boost has a single level control and a profile switch that chooses between a flat volume boost and a saturated boost with extra presence around 550Hz. The LED shows blue for the compressor, green for the boost and white with both on. A Comp On switch keeps the compressor engaged full time, so the second footswitch only has to handle the boost.
It is also the first Wampler with a balanced XLR output, so you can go straight into an audio interface, a mixing desk or a PA, with a ground lift switch for hum. For an 1176-style compressor with Attack and Release on knobs, look at the Ego 76. Built in the USA.
