Vox Silk Drive Pedal with Nutube

Under the umbrella of the Valvenergy series, the Silk Drive Pedal with Nutube stands out for its ability to replicate the sound and feel of a legendary boutique amp. This versatile unit covers a broad spectrum of tones, from warm, clean notes to bluesy overdriven sounds, capturing the subtle nuances of your picking style with precision. A standout feature of the Silk Drive Pedal is its distinctive tube compression, reminiscent of a classic vacuum tube amp. This is achieved through the integration of the revolutionary Nutube technology, a collaborative development by KORG and Noritake Itron. This innovative feature places the Nutube at the core of the Valvenergy series, delivering the rich overtone structure, power, and responsive feel you would expect from a traditional vacuum tube amp.The Silk Drive Pedal is built with an all-analog circuit design, which boosts the 9V power supply voltage to 15V internally. This unique design allows for increased volume and headroom, resulting in a more dynamic sound. It's a testament to the potential of the Valvenergy series and its commitment to delivering high-quality sound.The Silk Drive Pedal offers three connection modes, allowing you to adapt to any playing situation. The Standard mode outputs an instrument-level signal, perfect for connecting to your guitar amp. The Preamp mode outputs a line-level signal, ideal for connecting to the return jack of your amp or the input of your power amp. The Cab-Sim mode outputs a line-level signal with an analog cabinet simulator, making it perfect for connecting to your mixer or DAW for direct guitar tones.Additionally, the Silk Drive Pedal is equipped with a channel switching function. By linking two pedals with a standard 1/8" stereo cable through the Link jack, you can switch between pedals as if you were switching between channels of a guitar amp. A split Y-configuration 1/8" stereo cable allows you to link three pedals for even more versatility.Finally, the Silk Drive Pedal features a high-contrast OLED display. This display shows an oscilloscope, providing a visual representation of how the waveform is affected by the knob settings, offering a unique insight into your sound shaping process.
