The Valvenergy 2nd Series adds four new models to the lineup.

All models are equipped with the next-generation Nutube tube, and include a booster (Power Burst), a tube compressor (Smooth Impact), an overdrive (Fuel Injector), and a graphic equalizer (Tone Sculptor); a complete set of effects that are a must-have for guitarists. The pedals are designed to take full advantage of the characteristics of the guitars, effects pedals, and amplifiers combined before and after the pedal, and are simple and natural pedals that you will never get bored with and will want to play forever.

The VOX original sound that cannot be categorized as a “-type” sound, and the organic tube-like sound that cannot be imitated anywhere else by utilizing Nutube, have been voiced through repeated trial and error and adjustments.

Newly Developed Buffer Circuit

To harness the full potential of Nutube, a high-quality buffer was essential for the initial stage, serving as the guitar’s primary entry point. Consequently, we engineered a dedicated buffer circuit to meet this requirement. When the effects are deactivated, the Nutube functions as a buffered bypass, providing a natural response and a light feel akin to plugging a 3-meter shield directly into the amp. With the effects activated, the buffer’s traits are synergized with Nutube’s distinctive compression, resulting in a playing experience that is both light and easy, with nuances that enhance your performance.

Sound-Inspired Etched Design

The top panel of the new chassis features an etched design inspired by the unique sound of each effect pedal. The visual appeal of an effects pedal on a board is a crucial consideration in selecting your gear. The organic design of the Valvenergy series is sure to enhance the overall aesthetics of your board with a cool and distinctive touch.

VESI

Produce Clear Tones with a Gentle Touch: The First Vacuum Tube Compressor in Pedal Form. SMOOTH IMPACT is a genuine vacuum tube compressor that utilizes the gain variation resulting from fluctuations in Nutube’s power supply voltage. It marks the debut of a pedal-type vacuum tube compressor, offering a distinct, natural playing feel unlike compressors of other types. Instead of conventional VCA, optical, or FET methods, it harnesses the non-linear realm of tubes, featuring harmonics derived uniquely from vacuum tubes, setting it apart from clipping. Emphasizing the compression effect, it not only provides cutting tones but also allows for a solid sound with a light touch, even with settings that don’t convey the nuances of compression. This makes it highly effective for players who are not fans of compressors and for modern-style clean-tone backing, tapping, and more. Additionally, connecting it to solid-state amps or digital devices and incorporating the nuances of vacuum tubes is recommended. You can choose the character with the mini switch. VTG (Vintage) Mode Emphasizing the attack, this mode produces a classic sound with extended sustain. It’s effective for creating impactful sounds with cutting techniques. NAT (Natural) Mode As the name suggests, it offers a natural feel, avoiding the sensation of “obviously using a compressor pedal.” While providing a natural playing experience, it brings out nuances that may be subtle on high strings, making it perfect for modern backing or tapping performances. Compared to Vintage Mode, NAT Mode operates quickly, applying compression from the attack and featuring a shorter release. This makes it effective for achieving a natural sustain control, aligning the granularity of sound, or boosting volume without unnatural sustain control. SAG (Sagging) Mode This mode replicates the sag (SAG) that occurs when vintage tube amps are played at high volumes. It delivers the natural compression and distortion.

VESI – Valvenergy 2Nd Series Smooth Impact Effects Pedal

• Inputs/Outputs: INPUT terminal (monaural phone jack), OUTPUT terminal (monaural phone jack), DC.9V terminal

• Mini Switch: Offers three modes that you can choose based on your preference and the situation.
• VTG (Vintage): This mode has a fast attack time and a slow release time. Compression kicks in from the attack, making it the most intensely compressed mode. It delivers the typical sound of a compressed guitar.
• NAT (Natural): With a slow attack time and a fast release time, this setting preserves the attack feel while providing compression, resulting in a more natural nuance.
• SAG (Sagging): This mode provides a natural compression and distortion, similar to what you experience when playing a tube power amp. It’s ideal for adding a tube amp-like quality to solid-state amps or digital equipment.
• Power Supply: 9V alkaline batteries (6LF22/6LR62) or DC.9V AC adapter (both sold separately)
• The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s power consumption is relatively high. Should you prefer to use batteries, please use the alkaline type.

VEFI

An Overdrive with Distinct Tube-like Response and Rich Harmonics, Featuring Organic Distortion. FUEL INJECTOR offers a distinctive overdrive with clean characteristics, rich harmonics, and a natural sense of compression and bite. Developed by amp manufacturer VOX, this overdrive pedal stands out for its amp-like distortion, in contrast to typical pedal distortions. Unlike effects that color the tone like preamp-style pedals, FUEL INJECTOR preserves its natural characteristics while distorting through Nutube, providing a tone that sounds as if your connected amp is pushed into even more distortion. Compared to many drive pedals, including TS-style ones, it features overwhelming harmonic components and a pronounced compression characteristic reminiscent of a tube amp. The harmonic richness created by distorting Nutube in multiple stages, along with the bias variations unique to tubes, produces a resonant tone, capturing the essence of an amp-like sound. This characteristic allows for a pleasant drive sound when utilizing this pedal with a clean amp setting. FUEL INJECTOR adds a “resilience” to the sound, lifting up gracefully even during bends, ensuring that the player’s expression is conveyed seamlessly. Whether driving a clean amp with this pedal or using it as a booster for a slightly crunchy amp, it will undoubtedly prove powerful and effective. Maximizing the characteristics of Nutube, a pedal series that brings out the unique features of combined equipment. The Valvenergy series has been well received as a pedal series that delivers the response of a tube amp, and now four new models are added to the lineup.

While maintaining a natural tone, it goes beyond merely increasing volume. By turning the Boost knob, it brings forth a “tube-like” compression and saturation. Whether you want to push forward during a guitar solo, add power without altering the sound character of other equipment when combined with this unit, or exert influence when seeking a harder edge in your sound, the POWER BURST is an effect pedal that delivers. The POWER BURST brings a sound with “rich sustain,” allowing for the effective expression of guitar techniques inherent in the blues, such as bending and vibrato. Moreover, cranking up the BOOST to the maximum and driving the amp creates a classic rock sound.

VETS

Equipped with Nutube in the preamp section, a graphic equalizer that adds musical distortion. A graphic equalizer that allows you to set the frequency range and Q width tailored for guitar tone shaping. With Nutube in the preamp section, raising the level adds distinctive tube harmonics and compression. Choose frequency bands of 100Hz/250Hz/570Hz/800Hz/2.2kHz/5.6kHz, designed for intuitive tone shaping. To facilitate active tone shaping, the frequency bands are set to be more effective by widening the Q width compared to a typical graphic equalizer. It’s easy to use for switching between backing and solo, as well as for overall adjustments. The inclusion of Nutube in the preamp provides a musical distortion when the level is increased. The absence of a center click is intentionally designed for easy and fine adjustments. Set the low frequencies lower and the high frequencies higher for a clean tone arpeggio, ensuring each string sounds distinct. Boost the mids for easy solo articulation, or set it sharp for creating a sharp sound in heavy backing. The versatility allows for various sound options.
