What an interFACE!
It’s got that thing . . . simple, concise, and smart looking, with all the right controls and indicators in all the right places.
This Compressor stands tall in our family: Starting at the top, there’s an Input trim with clip indicator; 8 selectable compression ratios from 2:1 to 20:1 and everything in between; independent digitally stepped controls for precise recall of Attack and Release selections — including a soft Opto-Coupler style Release. Use the 70Hz High Pass Filter to minimize LF buildup; engage the soft clip function and relish the subtle and harmonious treatment of saturated signals.
We include comprehensive Gain Reduction metering and Attack Modification (AtMod) functions to slow the initial onset of the attack envelope and preserve more transient content for greater overall impact — with a Bypass selection to go dry. Brilliant! The final stage, Make Up Gain, brings track level up to balance and blend with the mix perfectly.
Available with Vertical Faceplate.
We’re proud to say our ELP PUMP has overachiever traits.
Attack Modification: Like performance to the Arousor plug-in
Chassis: 500 Series, single slot
Supply Voltage: 500 Series standard ±16v, 100mA

Just awesome
I highly recommend it! I like some aspects better than my two Distressors. The saturation is thicker in an awesome way and the Art Mod is addictive. Will definitely be picking up another in the future.

The Empirical Labs ELP Pump
The Empirical Labs ELP Pump 500 Series Compressor has been a solid addition to my setup. I’m using it mainly in my vocal chain after my preamp, and so far it gives me exactly what I wanted: better control going into the interface without making the vocal sound over-compressed.
