Velvet Compressor

The Ashdown Velvet Compressor simplifies bass compression with a single 'Compact' control that simultaneously adjusts Gain, Ratio, and Threshold. Attack and Decay times are pre-optimized for bass, eliminating the need for complex parameter tweaking.

The 3-band LED input meter (white/blue/red) provides clear visual feedback for level setting, ensuring optimal gain staging. Running at 18V for best signal-to-noise ratio, the Velvet Compressor maintains clarity even with heavy compression.

Part of the UK-made PRO FX range, the Velvet Compressor is ideal for bassists who want professional compression without diving deep into compressor theory. Just dial in the Compact control until it feels right.
