TEC 2008 Nominee The Germanium series continues with the GERMANIUM Compressor. The GERM Comp starts with the same all class A amp found in the GERM Pre and Tone Control and is transformer balanced in and out. The Compression circuit uses a FET gain reduction element but with the tricks and flexibilty of all the GERM units. Some of the most notable additions include a WET/DRY mix (for “submixing” tracks within the comp), COMP CURVE (which selects the knee using various diode combinations), CLEAN/DIRTY COMP, and SIDECHAIN FILTER. Many of the GERM Comp parameters have been purposely set by studio use and listening, not by over analysing them with test gear. The result is a musical powerhouse for ready for tracking, mixing, and mastering.

Options: Matched Pair (Stereo)


"Your line is the first I have been serious about of any of the newer audio companies in the last 15 years. Your TG-1 and Germanium Compressor actually beats the vintage stuff in my opinion."
-David McConnell

"Just a quick message to let you know that I'm so happy with my pair of Germ Comps. It's the fattest and most versatile compressor I've ever used.... amazing!! Thanks again."
-Mako, France

"In my 30 years of engineering I have never encountered a compressor that can repair and enhance any sound thrown it's way!! Between that unit and the "tone control" you have some of the most valuable and most used tools in my racks [no bullshit]..."
-Fletcher

"This has to be the fattest, squeeziest, most analog, in your face, kick ass compressor I've heard."
-Michael Wagener

"This is one of the most exciting recording tools I've used in many years. The two Germ Curves and the Mix control are especially noteworthy."
-Michael James

"I have played with these quite a bit. WOW! The most flexible compressor I have ever used....hands down."

-KROK, Gearslutz

"The compressor--just the coolest ever. The wet-dry feature is the most amazing thing I've ever used on a compressor. Am I crazy or is it destined to become the norm? These are instant classics. Selecting the different curves by chip name is also mind blowing. The sidechain--totally cool."

-Matthew Sweet

"The Germ Comp is great. What a brilliant combo of smart flexible design and tasteful sonics. I'm not returning this unit!"

-Greg Wells
