Frequently Asked Questions

The FET design of the EF-P5 is more aggressive and punchy than the smoother, more transparent response of most optical compressors, offering a different tonal flavor.
This switch subtly alters the attack and release curves, offering slightly different compression feels, adding a unique character to the effect.
Absolutely, but be mindful of the HP filter setting; too much cut can thin the low end. The FET compression will add some harmonic richness, which can be a good thing for bass, but it’s not a transparent, clean compressor.
