The Anagram Press was designed to integrate effortlessly into current setups, especially around the Anagram multi-effects. Its goal is not to "color" your sound but to provide reliable and reproducible foot control: opening a filter, adjusting an effect, or smoothly evolving multiple parameters without dead zones or value jumps.
This expression pedal is aimed at musicians (guitar, bass, synth) who use expression-compatible devices and want a consistent response both in the studio and on stage. It excels in styles where effects are "played" in real time: ambient and post-rock (parameter morphing), funk (filter sweeps), modern rock and metal (precise control of drive, blend, or gate), as well as electronic music (transitions and build-ups).
The Anagram Press focuses on a straightforward approach: a pedal mechanism with linear travel and a LED bargraph to maintain a clear visual reference, even when changing presets or songs. Regarding compatibility, it offers a standard TRS output (expression) and an RTS output wired specifically for the Anagram ecosystem, both with 10 kOhms linear impedance for stable reading by compatible devices.
An expression pedal is not meant to "sound" like an overdrive or delay: here, quality is measured by smoothness, precision, and responsiveness underfoot. The Anagram Press stands out with a fluid control feel, designed for fine variations (dynamics, filters, morphing) and immediate readability thanks to the LEDs, allowing quick recall of a setting position between takes.
