An intuitive compressor/boost combo offering low-noise compression in both modern and vintage tube flavors, the Bends V2 is ideal for guitar and bass alike. Utilizing a unique take on OTA technology for real-time gain control, this compressor reacts to your playing dynamics smoothly and naturally to balance the volume of louder and quieter sections while adding sustain and thickness to your notes.

The Bends V2 simplifies compression to three clearly labeled controls a three-speed Attack switch, a fine-tuned Release control, and an Input control which sets the input level of the compression trigger. An active Tone control with a center detent cuts or boost treble to make up for any lost sparkle, and the Blend control injects clean into the mix to provide the perfect balance of clean dynamics and compression. A rear-mounted Vintage switch provides the real secret sauce, reshaping the circuit from a crisp, surgical action to a beautifully colored smooth compression with a hint of natural saturation when engaged.

Combine boost and compression for some real magic. The Comp Pre/Post switch rearranges the internal circuit to reorder the independent ultra-clean boost and compression. Place the boost before compression for soaring Nashville-style sustain or stack the boost after your signal is compressed and kick it on for a solo boost to increase the overall output level into your next effects.

Featuring an independent boost circuit, switchable buffered and true bypass modes, and multiswitch enabled footswitches for momentary and latching activation, the Bends V2 is a fully featured compressor that brings natural feeling dynamic control to any instrument.
