PAWN SHOP COMP 2.0 

Compression from smooth to punchy with Audio Nerd tweakability 

The Pawn Shop Comp is a compressor emulation that not only gives you the vibe and mojo 
of those vintage audio processors you know and love, but also allows you to pop open the 
lid and tinker with the circuit! The audio path is based around a 1940's tube ampli

er which 

instantly places its round sonic 

ngerprint on your track. The tube ampli

er's Preamp 

section lets you

 

adjust the warmth and grit of your signal by adding harmonic distortion. 

The solid state FET sidechain delivers the punchy, distinctive compression characteristics of 
classic early-70’s compressors.

 

 

The Pawn Shop Comp 2.0 is an update to the original Pawn Shop Comp. The PSC 2.0 
retains the distinctive sonics and mojo of the original, while adding oversampling, a new 
GUI, and even more tweakability. It is a major expansion of the original, and if you liked the 
PSC you'll love the PSC 2.0.
