If you demand a studio-quality bass compressor that maintains your instrument’s dynamic integrity while ensuring punch and consistency, the Trickfish VCA Compressor is your essential pedalboard anchor. It is the definitive solution for players who want control without compromise.

Transparent Tone and Surgical Control

The Trickfish VCA Compressor is built to give you effortless command over your dynamic range in both live and recording settings.

Compression Without Compromise

• The VCA Design: Utilizing a Voltage-Controlled Amplifier (VCA) compressor pedal design, this pedal strikes a balance between the transparent accuracy required for studio tracking and the desirable tonal enhancement found in classic hardware.
• Preserve Your Attack: The critical BLEND knob transforms this unit into a superior bass compressor with clean blend. This feature enables you to blend your dry, uncompressed signal with the compressed signal, preserving your attack and low-end definition while maintaining control over the overall dynamic range.
• Studio-Quality Bass Compressor: Built with high-fidelity, low-noise components, this bass compressor pedal ensures your signal remains pristine, even when heavily compressed.

Intuitive, Smart Controls

While powerful, the VCA Compressor features a smart, simple set of controls over the most crucial compression parameters:

• Ratio: Adjusts how aggressively the signal gain is reduced once the threshold is crossed.
• Threshold: Sets the exact input level at which the compressor engages the signal.
• Level: Controls the overall output volume of the effect.
• Blend: Mixes the parallel compressed and dry signals for dynamic retention.

Rugged Build and Reliability

• Road Ready: This VCA compressor pedal is housed in a sturdy steel chassis, built to handle the constant engagement and transport of a busy pedalboard.
• True Bypass: The footswitch toggles the effect on/bypass, ensuring your tone remains completely unaffected when the pedal is off.
