In this work we report experimental compression of 9.4 mJ, 9.4 W, and 1.2 picosecond long pulses down to 7 mJ ,13 fs at 1 kHz in two cascaded stages with gas filled multi-pass cells (MPCs). The output from the first, argon filled MPC is compressed to <50 fs. The output pulses of the subsequent second MPC stage filled with Neon is then compressed to 13 fs using a chirped mirror compressor. The overall transmission, and compression ratio of both stages exceed 74 % and 92 times respectively.
