Eventide Omnipressor

Dynamics Processor with Attitude!
Introduced in the early 1970s, the Omnipressor was the first dynamics effects processor of any kind. Originally invented by Eventide’s founder, Richard Factor (and later redesigned for production by Jon Paul), the Omnipressor made a host of effects possible. It featured variable control of all aspects of dynamic modification. It also introduced the notion of the ‘side chain’ and foretold techniques that today we take for granted like ‘look ahead’ processing. One of our first customers was a young Brian May, lead guitarist of Queen. With the Omnipressor in his rig, his sound was never the same again.

Features:

• Dynamics processing for creating otherwordly sounds
• Gating, expansion, compression, limiting, and Dynamic Reversal
• Intuitive interface makes it simple to operate with the use of a Function dial
