Atlas Compressor User Guide
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the Source Audio Atlas! The Atlas is an all-in-one compressor pedal that
aims to be the ultimate destination for guitar or bass compression and a dive into the deep history of
compressor units. On the surface, the Atlas serves up six unique compressor circuits spanning from
classic stompbox compressors to expensive studio rack gear to ultra-modern and flexible dual-band
compressors.
Connect via USB to the Neuro Mobile App and Neuro Desktop Editors to transform the Atlas into a
DAW compression module with real time gain reduction readout displays and enough controls—such
as Threshold, Attack, Release, Makeup Gain, Ratio, Soft Knee Width, Clean Blend, and a Side Chain
Low-Pass and High-Pass Filters to fine-tune the Atlas Compressor to your exact specifications.
Parameter range controls allow you to set a custom range for each control knob so your tones will
always be in the useable range.
The Atlas Compressor is our love letter to compression and was a collaborative effort between our
trusted engineering duo of Jesse Remignanti (hardware) & Bob Chidlaw (DSP) and Christopher Venter
of SHOE Pedals, who has previously contributed on the ZIO and True Spring pedals. Plug in an Atlas
and experience the final word in audio compression.
