Description

The Volta Custom Expressor is a studio quality compressor pedal built to bring professional grade compression into your rig. With its seamless design and attention to detail, the Volta Custom Expressor offers a dynamic, expressive experience, all housed within a solid, stylish box. Whether aiming for transparent compression with enhanced detail or a bold, “squishy” effect, the Volta Custom Expressor delivers a flexible, satisfying range of sounds that enriches your tone and playing experience.

The Volta Custom Expressor’s sound is versatile and defined. Even under high compression, it remains silent and controlled, allowing players to explore everything from gentle compression that highlights clarity to an intense, pronounced tone that packs a punch. Designed with both ATTACK and RELEASE knobs, the Volta Custom Expressor gives players full control over how quickly the compressor engages and releases, offering nuanced dynamic shaping that adapts perfectly to any playing style.

With the COMP control, users can adjust compression intensity gradually, going from a subtle touch that reinforces note detail to robust compression that stabilises and reshapes the entire sound profile. The TONE control is crafted with a frequency curve specifically designed for electric guitars, gradually “opening up” the sound to retain a natural musicality at every setting. The unique SUGAR mode redistributes compression across the strings for a smooth, even effect, even at extreme settings, ideal for players who want their tone to stay warm and natural, no matter the adjustments.

Each Volta Custom Expressor pedal is entirely hand built in Italy, from its custom designed circuit to its al metal, durable enclosure. The graphics, on the front, add a visually appealing touch to the overall look, complementing its robust feel. The Volta Custom Expressor also features an LED power indicator for easy monitoring, true bypass circuitry to ensure no tonal colouration when disengaged, and side mounted jacks for a sleek, connectivity friendly layout. With both 9V and 18V DC power options, the Volta Custom Expressor can adapt to various setups, and it’s designed to perform optimally with a high quality, regulated power supply.

Made with precision and crafted for players seeking an expressive, dynamic compressor, the Volta Custom Expressor pedal is backed by a solid warranty, reflecting the craftsmanship and care poured into every detail. This is not just a compressor, it's an instrument of expression built to inspire musicians who demand quality and control in their gear.
