Orange Whip Compressor

The Orange Whip Compressor by Henretta Engineering is a compact pedal based on the popular Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer circuit. The pedal measures 2" x 2" and is designed to provide subtle yet present compression effects. It enhances the body of clean chords, adds presence to solos, and allows for effective control of the guitar's volume knob when running into an overdriven amplifier.

The pedal features a footswitch for activation, with an LED indicator to show when the compression circuit is active. It operates on a 9V DC 200mA power supply with a center-negative barrel connector, drawing a maximum current of 50mA. The Orange Whip uses a TL072 dual op-amp and includes a multi-turn trimmer for compression adjustment and an output volume trimpot for signal level control.

The Orange Whip Compressor is suitable for electric guitar use and is designed to fit onto any pedalboard due to its compact size. It offers a clean, transparent sound with a subtle compression effect, making it suitable for a variety of musical styles and applications.
