Yet another compressor?
You might be thinking: Compressor pedals are a dime-a-dozen. Like overdrives and fuzz boxes, the market is chocka-block full of them! So why build another one?
The iconic 1176. It’s a heritage claimed by so many pedals, that aren’t really 1176s. They might borrow the name, maybe the look, but underneath they’re running simplified circuits that don’t capture what makes the original so special: feedback compression topology; that distinctive FET character; the way it responds to your playing.
The Yeti is the real deal, built around an authentic 1176 architecture—the same sidechain topology that’s been making records sound better since 1967. Optimised for bass. Compact on your ’board. Priced for mere mortals.
Why the name “Yeti”?
- Yeti’nother compressor — a play on words and awarenes that we’re joining a crowded market. So we’re making sure we deliver something special, that warrants your time, and hard-earned cash.
- Big & warm — Like the mythical creature, this compressor is built for fat, hairy, strong, yet warm low-end.
- Mythical — Like the Yeti, the “perfect compressor” might not exist, but we never stop searching. And that’s half the fun!
