The Electro-Harmonix Nano Soul Preacher is a compact analog compressor and sustainer pedal, condensing the classic Soul Preacher circuit into EHX's space-saving Nano enclosure. It offers Sustain and Level controls for dialing in everything from a subtle, transparent evening-out of playing dynamics to a heavily compressed, sustained tone with added attack. Built for players wanting straightforward, musical compression without a large pedalboard footprint.
The Tech 21 Comptortion is a combined compressor and distortion pedal from Tech 21 of New York, providing integrated compression and distortion in a single unit with Tech 21's reliable analog engineering for convenient compression with gain.
