Emulation name: COPY CAT/ US MODERN COPY CAT
Hardware modeled: EMPIRICAL LABS EL8 DISTRESSOR* (US)
Based on a EMPIRICAL LABS EL8 DISTRESSOR* (US) serial # 1689 Stepped Ratio with NUKE at max setting – Attack and Release range from 1 to 10, with 1 being fastest and 10 being slowest The Distressor controls just about any source in a very pleasing and "musical" manner, adding fullness, intelligibility and especially excitement. The compressor is digitally controlled, but offers a warm, vintage sound by allowing you to add 2nd- or 3rd- order harmonic distortion to the signal (See COPYCAT2 and COPYCAT3 - COPYCAT has no added harmonics), emulating tape saturation and the classic tube compressor sound of the '60's and '70's. Don’t miss out on the NUKE setting (by turning the ratio dial to full)!
