{"product_id":"old-blood-noise-endeavors-expression-ramper-366815","title":"Expression Ramper","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA \"utility\" pedal designed to multiply the possibilities of your pedalboard\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Expression Ramper is not an audio effect per se: it is an \u003cstrong\u003eexpression control generator\u003c\/strong\u003e. Where a classic expression pedal requires foot control, the Expression Ramper allows you to \u003cstrong\u003eprogram two values\u003c\/strong\u003e (A and B) and automatically move the targeted parameter between these two points. The result: you instantly \"awaken\" often underused functions on delays, reverbs, filters, tremolos, pitch shifters, loopers, or multi-effects that have an expression input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a modern chain, it's the kind of compact tool that saves space and opens up a huge playground: \u003cstrong\u003emorphing between two settings\u003c\/strong\u003e, repetitive sweeps, gradual transitions between two textures... without adding noise or coloration to the signal, since everything happens on the control side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Expression Ramper for, and in which styles does it make a difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Expression Ramper is aimed at guitarists (and more broadly musicians using pedals) who like to \u003cstrong\u003esculpt the evolution of a sound\u003c\/strong\u003e over time: ambient, post-rock, indie, electro, shoegaze, worship, experimental, but also funk and rock whenever a filter, phaser, or tremolo benefits from moving regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cstrong\u003elive\u003c\/strong\u003e situations, you can trigger a ramp between two \"presets\" of the same parameter (for example reverb depth, delay mix, filter frequency) with your foot while keeping your hands on your playing. In \u003cstrong\u003estudio\u003c\/strong\u003e, it's a quick way to achieve coherent, repeatable animations and explore \"sweet spots\" that are hard to hold with a classic expression pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControls, modes, and compatibility: a simple yet very powerful approach\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe core concept relies on \u003cstrong\u003etwo expression settings\u003c\/strong\u003e (A and B) and movement between them. You choose the \u003cstrong\u003eshape\u003c\/strong\u003e (triangle, square, one-shot) to define how the value moves: smooth back-and-forth, sharp toggling, or a single transition. The \u003cstrong\u003espeed control\u003c\/strong\u003e adjusts the movement's pace, ranging from subtle tremors to more pronounced cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003efootswitch\u003c\/strong\u003e activates the movement on the fly: perfect for launching modulation during a passage, then immediately returning to a stable setting. An \u003cstrong\u003eLED\u003c\/strong\u003e indicates the current setting, handy on stage for visual control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRegarding integration, the output is \u003cstrong\u003econfigurable\u003c\/strong\u003e to adapt to the most common expression inputs: \u003cstrong\u003eTRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ereversed polarity TRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, or \u003cstrong\u003eTS\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Expression Ramper is initially configured as \u003cstrong\u003etip-active TRS\u003c\/strong\u003e (compatible with Old Blood Noise Endeavors devices), but can be reconfigured to \u003cstrong\u003etip-active TRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ering-active TRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eTS\u003c\/strong\u003e via \u003cstrong\u003einternal jumpers\u003c\/strong\u003e. By default, the unit comes with a \u003cstrong\u003e50K digital potentiometer\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026#59; this component is socketed and can be replaced by a \u003cstrong\u003e10K\u003c\/strong\u003e (MCP41010-I\/P) or \u003cstrong\u003e100K\u003c\/strong\u003e (MCP41100-I\/P) value if your gear requires it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Expression Ramper adds \u003cstrong\u003eno distortion\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eno coloration\u003c\/strong\u003e, and does not directly alter your signal: its sonic impact depends entirely on the pedal you control. Where it becomes \"musical\" is in the sensation of movement: \u003cstrong\u003eprogressive evolutions\u003c\/strong\u003e that give breathing to a reverb, a \u003cstrong\u003eregular filter sweep\u003c\/strong\u003e without an expression pedal, a \u003cstrong\u003edelay mix\u003c\/strong\u003e swelling during a chorus, or a \u003cstrong\u003emodulation depth\u003c\/strong\u003e shifting from a subtle shimmer to a fully pronounced effect. The response is precise and repeatable, ideal for creating a playing signature and clear transitions between two intensities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
