I liked the combination of Bloom and Limiter
together. I could imagine this as the right
choice for Bass players live or in the studio. For
crunchy guitar stuff, the Limit circuit tightens
up rhythm parts quite nicely. Also, if you are
looking for that typical comp sustain, there is
plenty here. The PressuRizer sounds fat and
musical in every setting I tried. There is another
cool feature with the Boost control. Like myself,
lots of guys I know leave the compressor on all
the time. By holding down the Footswitch for a
couple of seconds, the pedal goes into Boost
mode and locks the compressor on turning
the LED green. Now when you hit the switch,
it becomes a boost that’s adjustable with the
side knob. For live, I like this mode.
In the studio, I’m typically using more than one
compressor. One is smooth, and one is spanky.
The PressuRizer can do both.
TAKE AWAY:
I love compressors, and they’re your friends
in many ways. PressuRizer does much more
than other similar units. It looks cool, and after
spending time with it, I’ve come to appreciate
the genius behind it. You can tell that James put
much thought into this design. I’m sure it’s from
working with top touring and studio guys. It’s
studio quality and equally compatible on guitar
and bass. I’m impressed with the mounting
options, and how light it is.
