RC-2 Compressor
The Barge Concepts RC-2 Compressor is a hidden gem in the world of guitar effects. This compact pedal packs a serious punch, delivering the iconic tone of the legendary Ross compressor with a host of modern enhancements. At its core, the RC-2 faithfully recreates the smooth, musical compression of the Ross and its Dynacomp predecessor. But Barge Concepts didn't stop there. They've added an ingenious Decay Speed control that lets you fine-tune the compression's release time, going from the classic fixed setting to a faster or slower response. This extra flexibility makes the RC-2 a versatile tool, able to tame wild pickups or sustain delicate lead lines with equal aplomb. But the innovations don't stop there. An internal bass response switch extends the low-end to a thunderous 30Hz, a boon for bass and baritone guitarists seeking full-range compression. And the pedal's clean, noise-free operation is the result of premium components and a meticulously designed circuit. Whether you're looking to fatten up your rhythm tone, smooth out your lead playing, or simply experience the magic of Ross-style compression, the RC-2 is a must-try. Its blend of vintage character and modern refinements make it a compressor that belongs on any discerning guitarist's pedalboard. The only question is, why don't you have one yet?
