Mission Engineering VM1-BK-Aero

The Mission Engineering VM1-BK-Aero offers smooth tone control and volume expression. Built with an extended sweep angle and an ergonomically curved chassis, this pedal allows comfortable foot movement whether you are standing on stage or sitting in the studio. Its sleek, flat black finish brings a clean aesthetic to your pedalboard, while its durable metal housing handles demanding live performances.

At the heart of the VM1-BK-Aero is a passive, high-quality audio circuit designed to maintain tone purity. Unlike standard volume pedals that can choke high frequencies or rob your guitar of top-end sparkle, this unit prevents tone-sucking and leaves your clean signal intact. It also features an integrated mode switch and an isolated tuner output that completely decouples your tuner when in active mode to eliminate signal loss.

The standout feature of the VM1-BK-Aero is its acrylic base that lights up to indicate your operational status. In standard volume mode, the base illuminates green, giving you visual feedback on stage. Engaging the toe switch transitions the pedal into tuner mode, turning the base red while directing your signal to the tuner output for silent, hassle-free tuning between songs.
