Electro-Harmonix Pico Platform Compressor/Limiter
The Electro-Harmonix Pico Platform packs the studio-style dynamics control of its full-sized predecessor into a stripped-down, super-compact stompbox. Retaining Compressor and Limiter modes for maximum flexibility, this guitar effects pedal arms you with selectable Hard Knee and Soft Knee compression curves. The Pico Platform’s four knobs enable you to fine-tune your dynamics with razor-sharp precision; thanks to its Blend control, you’ll find that you can dial in some pretty aggressive compression without muffling your attack. Guitarists searching for ultra-transparent processing will appreciate the Pico Platform’s coloration-free sound. Of course, if it’s hyper-squashed tones you’re after, this pico-sized stompbox will be happy to oblige. In short, the EHX Pico Platform supplies pro-level dynamics sculpting without hogging your pedalboard.

Versatile, studio-style dynamics control
The Pico Platform packs a lot of dynamics control into an unassuming, 4-knob guitar pedal. In fact, many of the guitarists here at Music Experience have found it to be as effective as an expensive rackmount unit in a wide range of applications. For starters, you get both Compressor and Limiter modes. The Pico Platform’s Sustain knob adjusts your Compressor ratio or Limiter threshold, while its Attack knob controls your attack time. The Volume knob controls your overall output level. You also get a Blend knob to adjust your dry/wet ratio. Complete with Hard Knee and Soft Knee compression curves, the EHX Pico Platform allows you to fit studio-quality compression onto all but the most crowded of pedalboards.
What Electro-Harmonix Says…
The EHX Pico Platform Compressor / Limiter is a powerful and versatile studio-style compressor enclosed in a pico-sized package. Borrowing from the original, the Pico Platform condenses the comp section of the full-sized Stereo Platform for those looking to fit smooth studio compression onto any pedalboard. Packed with 2 modes and Hard/Soft Knee compression options, it is a perfect fit for sculpting your dynamics with professional precision. Use the Pico Platform compressor / limiter on any instrument for precise and powerful control of your signal’s volume and of course, extended sustain on leads. Add subtle dynamic control to level out peaks and valleys in your signal or give your sound a real squeeze for extra sustain and pop. The Pico Platform is extremely transparent with no tonal coloring, making it extremely versatile and easy to work into your existing set up. The Pico Platform’s control set is simple yet comprehensive. Use the Sustain control to adjust the compressor ratio or limiter threshold for a subtle or extreme effect. The addition of a Blend knob allows for adding seamless sustain while preserving attack and tone. Adjust the Attack control to set when the compressor activates after a transient. Use the Mode button to choose between Compressor and Limiter modes and Soft Knee or Hard Knee compression curves for smoother or more dramatic compression styles.
