Description
The Distressor emulates eight classic compressors depending on its ratio, and the British mode adds the 1176 “all-buttons” effect: compression that collapses and breathes, adored on drums. The EL8X adds stereo detection and Brit Mod on both channels.
This unit has been bench-tested function by function by a technician in our workshop: every function works, which is why its functional condition is rated 10/10. It is in excellent cosmetic condition — the photographs show the exact item you will receive. Cleaned, firmware updated, weighed with its packaging and shipped in a reinforced carton with foam bracing.
