Open Box Carl Martin Honey Comp Compressor Effects Pedal Platinum

Description

The Honey Comp Compressor effects pedal is the same as Carl Martins previous Compressor Limiter in many ways. It has a gray anodized finish, the same footprint, and the same simplicity of use with one compression control and one level control. But the Honey Comp Compressor does come with a few upgrades. First, Carl Martin added a Dry volume, which allows for parallel processing with three knobs. Parallel Processing is a studio technique that takes a heavily compressed signal (which through compression loses some dynamics, if not all) and allows you to add a clean (Dry) signal on top. This technique replaces those dynamics, giving your guitar three-dimensionality and allowing the guitar to cut through the mix. Its a well-known technique for players who are used to working in the studio, but usually too complex for a pedalboard. The three knobs allow you to balance the Compressed signal with the Dry signal quickly and efficiently for a professional sound. The Carl Martin Honey Comp effects pedal also incorporates the special CM developed DC/DC converter circuitry. This enables Carl Martin to run the pedal with +-12V internally, which is necessary, in order to maintain the same sonic quality and headroom as the old Compressor/Limiter, using a regular 9V DC 200mA external power supply.
