Analog Alien Alien Comp CompressorThe World of Compressors here in effects pedal land has really come on strong the last couple of years, with some incredible, studio-quality stompboxes coming out into the fold more and more. Today’s featured pedal is no exception, using an expected control section to produce not just excellent, high-quality compression, but a gorgeous clean boost sound if you need it as well. Straight from our friends at Analog Alien, the Alien Comp boasts a natural, warm compression tone, while keeping the original character of your tone in tact, and adding a sparkle and shine to your overall musical sound.

The three-knob parameter control section features the some of the usual suspects found in many compressor pedals, and one knob that lets you use the Alien Comp to its fullest potential, regardless of what type of pickups you’re using. The knob would be Sensitivity, which lets you help tame your hotter output pickups, or give your lower output sets a bit of a boost, to keep everything nice and even across the board. Ratio sets the amount of compression that is applied to signals breaking the threshold, and has a range going from 2:1 to 10:1, for subtle to heavy compression. Output sets the, well, output level of the pedal – turn down the Sens and Ratio knobs to 10:00-ish and crank this knob, and you’ll get a wonderful clean boost, great for getting a louder signal, driving a tube amp and more.

Simple to use but sounding like a high-end studio piece of equipment, this compressor can be used not only on guitar, but other recording and live scenarios and situations as well.
