Okko Cocaine Compressor / Preamp

The Cocaine is a highly original German boutique pedal that combines an optical compressor, preamp, active EQ, and dual clean boost in a single unit. Unlike many conventional compressors, it operates with an "upward compression" approach, preserving the attack of louder notes while boosting quieter ones, resulting in a very natural and dynamic feel. Its extremely quiet circuitry, active Bass/Treble EQ, and independent boost—capable of operating as either a full-range clean boost or a tighter mid-boost—make it a true sound-shaping tool as well as a compressor. Highly transparent yet never sterile, it is particularly appreciated for enriching the tone without altering it, whether on electric guitar, acoustic guitar, or bass.
