Keeley Compressor Plus

About the Keeley Compressor Plus

The Keeley Compressor Plus is a versatile, natural-sounding compressor whose key feature is a blend control, which mixes the compressed and dry signal for a transparent result that keeps your dynamics. It also adds a tone knob, a two-position attack switch, and a single-coil/humbucker input switch. It is a modern take on Keeley's long-running compressor line.

What owners have said elsewhere

Paraphrased from 348 discussion threads among 11 owners, 2024. No names, nothing quoted.

Owners reach for the Compressor Plus when they want compression that does not squash the life out of the guitar: the blend control lets you mix in dry signal, so you get sustain and evenness while keeping your dynamics, which is what people mean when they call it transparent. It is a genuine board staple, and for a fair few the search ended once they got the Plus. The comparison that always comes up is against the Wampler Ego, and owners are split: both are excellent, and some give the Ego a slight edge for its warmer voice and full attack knob (the Keeley has only a two-position attack switch), while others pick the Keeley as a do-everything compressor for guitar, bass and synth alike. It sits in a strong field, so depending on how much control and squish you want, owners also weigh the Xotic SP, the Origin Cali76 and the Empress.
