VOX SMOOTH IMPACT Compact Guitar Effects Pedal 2nd - Compressor/Nutube Equipped/Vacuum Tube/Valvenergy VE-SI

[Product Overview] This is the first tube-type pedal compressor that delivers a solid sound with just a light touch. Equipped with next-generation Nutube vacuum tubes, it delivers an organic sound characteristic of vacuum tubes. Unlike VCA, optical, or FET systems, this system utilizes the non-linear region of the tube, resulting in unique harmonics derived from the vacuum tube itself, distinct from clipping. It's perfect for cutting techniques that emphasize the compression effect, but even with settings that don't give off a noticeable compression nuance, you can still produce a clear sound with a light touch. A newly developed dedicated buffer circuit provides buffered bypass when the effect is off, while still achieving a natural response and light playing feel, similar to plugging a 3m cable directly into an amplifier.
