The Smooth Impact is the compressor pedal of the "Valvenergy" series by Vox , equipped with a Nutube valve. Characterized by the particular LED display that shows the response of the signal on the effect, it is composed of Tube Gain knobs to adjust the amount of signal sent to the Nutube valve, Comp to adjust the compression level, Output to adjust the output level of the signal and 3 modes of use, VTG ( Vintage ), NAT (Natural) and SAG (Sagging). As with all Valvenergy pedals, the Smooth Impact recreates tube sounds, providing the typical natural compression of a tube amp.





 



Overview of the Valvenergy Power Burst from Vox



SMOOTH IMPACT is a true tube compressor that uses gain variation from fluctuations in the Nutube’s supply voltage. It marks the debut of a pedal-style tube compressor, offering a distinct and natural sounding feel unlike other compressors. Instead of conventional VCA, optical or FET methods, it uses the non-linear response of tubes, with harmonics derived uniquely from them, distinguishing it from clipping.



By emphasizing the compression effect, it not only provides cutting tones but also allows for a tight sound with a light touch, even at settings that do not convey the nuances of compression. This makes it very effective for players who do not like compressors and for supporting modern-style clean tones, tapping, and more. It is also advisable to connect it to solid-state amplifiers or digital devices to incorporate the nuances of tubes. You can choose the character with the mini switch.




  • VTG ( Vintage ) Mode : Emphasizing attack, this mode produces a classic sound with extended sustain. It is effective for creating impactful sounds.

  • NAT (Natural) Mode : As the name suggests, this mode offers a natural feel, avoiding the “using a compressor pedal” sensation. It brings out nuances that may be subtle on the high strings, making it perfect for modern backing or tapping performances. Compared to Vintage mode, NAT mode operates quickly, applying compression early on in the attack and with a shorter release. This makes it effective for achieving natural sustain control, leveling the grain of the sound, or increasing volume without unnatural sustain control.

  • SAG (Sagging) Mode : This mode replicates the sag that occurs when vintage tube amplifiers are played at high volumes. It provides the natural compression and distortion that you get when playing a tube amplifier, making it ideal for combining with equipment such as solid state amplifiers or digital modelers to bring out the essence of a tube amplifier. Sag, felt when playing a guitar amplifier, is a phenomenon caused by a drop in the supply voltage, which includes not only compression but also distortion from the power tube. In this mode, Nutube distortion is actively used to reproduce sag through the combination of distortion and compression.



Compressors with a lot of controls can be difficult to adjust. So by selecting one of the three modes base on your situation or preference, adjusting the Tube Gain and Comp knobs, and finally adjusting the volume with the Output knob, you can easily get the sound you want.



TUBE GAIN : Adjusts the amount of signal sent to the Nutube. As you turn it, Nutube distortion is gradually introduced.

COMP : Controls the level of compression. Allows you to adjust the consistency of the compression through interaction with TUBE GAIN.

OUTPUT : Adjusts the output volume.

Mini Switch: It offers three modes that you can choose base to your preference and situation.



The Valvenergy series has been welcomed as a series of pedals that offers the response of a tube amplifier, and now four new models join the range.

All models are equipped with the new generation Nutube valves and include a booster (Power Burst), a valve compressor (Smooth Impact), an overdrive (Fuel Injector) and a graphic equalizer (Tone Sculptor); a complete set of effects that are a must for guitarists. The pedals are designed to exploit all the characteristics of guitars, effects pedals and amplifiers combined before and after the pedal, and are simple and natural pedals that you never get bored of.

Newly designed buffer circuit



To fully exploit the potential of the Nutube, a high-quality buffer for the initial stage, which serves as the guitar’s primary input point, was essential. Accordingly, Vox designed a dedicated buffer circuit to meet this requirement. When the effects are turned off, the Nutube functions as a bypass, providing a natural response and lightweight feel similar to plugging directly into the amp. With the effects engaged, the buffer’s characteristics are synergized with the Nutube’s signature compression, resulting in a smooth, natural playing experience with nuances that enhance the performance.



Sound-inspired engraved design



The new chassis' top panel features an etched design inspired by the unique sound of each effect pedal. The visual appeal of an effect pedal on a pedalboard is a crucial consideration when choosing your gear. The organic design of the Valvenergy series can enhance the overall aesthetic of your pedalboard with a fresh and distinctive touch.
