From the vendor

Ultra-subtle compression - you won't know its on until you turn it off!

Rather than squashing your signal or pumping it up unnaturally, the Lovely Squeezer boosts the signal where you need it - adding dB to low-level signals while leaving higher levels untouched.

Available with through hole FET, or save a quid and go with SMT if you're confident dealing with tiny components.

The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.

Inspired by: Love Squeeze Compressor

Difficulty: Medium

PCB size: 50 x 32mm

Knobs required: 2

Enclosure: 1590B

Direct-Connect compatible (4-way)
