What pros are saying
Trusted by the best.
★★★★★
"Escalator adds that vibe, energy, richness, and presence I am always looking for, from subtle tones to edgy vibes... Escalator Rules!"
Reuven Amiel
Grammy Winning Mixer
★★★★★
"Escalator's tagline is spot on - fatter sounds in seconds! With the twist of one knob, I can go from light harmonic distortion that adds weight to percussion and drum tracks all the way up to full blown distortion, with the latter still remaining incredibly musical."
Jack Mason
J. Cole, Dashboard Confessional, Joe P, CNCO
★★★★★
"Escalator has replaced almost all of my saturation plugins. When I bypass it, half my song is gone, that's how much energy and fullness it's adding!"
