The Crazy Tube Circuits Golden Ratio (Phi) is a dual-engine compressor pedal featuring separate FET and optical compression circuits in one enclosure with a switch to select between them. The FET engine delivers crisp, punchy compression while the optical circuit provides warm, fluid compression. The pedal essentially delivers two distinct compressor voices in one unit. Built in Greece by Crazy Tube Circuits with boutique quality components.
The Strymon Compadre is a dual-voice compressor from Strymon (Westlake Village, California), delivering two independent compression circuits in one pedal: an optical compressor for smooth, natural compression and an FET compressor for punchy, transparent compression. The Compadre provides both compression characters in one premium Strymon pedal for players who want optical and FET compression from one highly capable compressor.
