VOX ValvEnergy Cutting Edge High Gain Pedal with NuTube
The iconic amp sounds for your pedalboard. The Cutting Edge valve distortion pedal offers aggressive saturated and precise modern metal tones in a compact pedal format, powered by Nutube for warm and responsive amp-like tones.
Features
Inspired by the meticulous and tight tones heard on modern metal records, the Cutting Edge goes beyond the amp-in-a-box category to offer a truly flexible valve distortion pedal. The all-analog signal path and Nutube allow for genuine overdrive and distortion tones with the feel of a real tube amp, while internally boosted voltage gives greater headroom and dynamics.
Modes
Three output modes allow you to use this as a standard pedal, a line-level preamp, and a direct amp-sim using the built-in analog cabinet simulator. Use Standard mode to transform your amp, or use Pre-amp or Cab-Sim mode while recording directly into your audio interface. In each mode, the all-analog design and active EQ allow you to perfectly dial in the sound you need in any situation.
Benefits
The Channel Link feature allows you to chain two or more Valvenergy pedals together, through the Link jack of each pedal. Using a standard 1/8-inch stereo cable will link 2 pedals, and using a stereo 1/8-inch splitter will link 3 or 4 pedals. This allows you to turn one pedal on while bypassing the others as if you were switching between channels of a guitar amp.
OLED Display
This pedal is equipped with a high-contrast OLED display showing an oscilloscope, a visual indication of how the waveform is affected by the knob settings. This display shows which mode you are currently using.
