Electro-Harmonix Platform Stereo Compressor Pedal

All-in-One Compressor Pedal for Guitarists and Producers
The Electro-Harmonix Platform Stereo Compressor Pedal brings studio-grade compression to your guitar rig, offering unparalleled tone-shaping capabilities that blur the lines between live performance and studio processing. Whether you’re looking for smooth sustain, punchy dynamics, or a boost for your overdriven tones, the Platform delivers. With its onboard overdrive and unique volume swell effects, this pedal allows you to shape your sound with ease and versatility. Ideal for both live gigs and studio sessions, the Platform provides a powerful solution for guitarists who want a compact, multi-functional compressor.

Stereo Compression for Enhanced Sound Clarity
One of the standout features of the EHX Platform is its true stereo operation, which allows for maximum flexibility in signal routing. Whether you’re using it in a mono setup or connecting it to two amps for stereo effects, the Platform adapts seamlessly to your rig. This stereo compression circuit is engineered to provide studio-quality dynamics control, ensuring that your guitar sound maintains clarity and presence, even when dealing with complex mixes or heavy processing. The result is a polished, professional tone that translates well across any performance or recording situation.

Flexible Compression Settings for Tailored Tone
The Platform excels in providing a range of compression effects to suit any style. The controls for Volume, Attack, Release, and Sustain give you full control over how much compression you apply, allowing you to go from subtle tonal thickening to aggressive squashing. The Knee and Limiter buttons add further versatility, adjusting the pedal’s response to your dynamics and how the compression behaves. Whether you want a soft, natural compression effect or a more aggressive, squashed tone, the Platform's flexible circuit ensures you can dial in the perfect sound for your performance or recording.

Onboard Overdrive for Rich, Saturated Tones
In addition to its stellar compression features, the Electro-Harmonix Platform also includes an onboard overdrive, providing you with even more tonal flexibility. The overdrive section comes with dedicated Volume, Tone, and Drive controls, letting you shape your dirt to your exact preferences. Whether you're after a smooth, mild overdrive or a more saturated, crunchy tone, the Platform can deliver. What’s even better is that the overdrive is footswitchable, allowing you to toggle between clean and dirty tones on the fly. This makes the Platform perfect for guitarists who need versatile tones without needing to add extra pedals to their setup.

Swell Control for Unique Soundscapes
The Swell control on the Electro-Harmonix Platform adds a unique dimension to your sound, allowing you to simulate volume swells that are reminiscent of stringed-instrument or synth-like tones. By adjusting the Swell knob, you can effectively dial out much of your note's initial attack, creating a smooth, gradual volume swell. This is ideal for ambient soundscapes, adding subtle depth to your music, or mimicking the sounds of a bowed instrument. What makes this feature even more exciting is that it works equally well with or without the overdrive engaged, providing a wealth of creative possibilities.

Studio-Grade Compression for Live and Studio Use
Whether you’re playing live or recording in the studio, the Electro-Harmonix Platform offers professional-grade compression that enhances your sound. It performs excellently as an outboard studio compressor, adding richness and clarity to any recording chain. Guitarists who’ve used compression pedals in their rigs for years will appreciate the smooth, polished results the Platform delivers, while producers will find it an indispensable tool for tracking and mixing. The ability to seamlessly transition between onstage and studio settings makes the Platform a must-have for serious musicians and engineers alike.
