DESCRIPTION

Compressors pretty much fall into two camps: Those compressors which give you every single control, very similar to what you'll find in the studio, that let you perfectly dial in the exact type and amount of compression that you want. There are also compressors that have very limited options but get the job done.

The Trickfish VCA compressor sits in a very comfortable middle ground, because it gives you plenty of control over your compression without making it overly complicated. Trickfish's goal was to provide a pedal board friendly take on the transparent and accurate studio compression they love. They settled on a VCA (voltage-controlled amplifier) design with a smart and simple set of controls over the crucial compression parameters.

The four-knob layout gives you everything you need: Threshold sets the level at which the compressor engages, Ratio adjusts how aggressively the gain is reduced, Level adjusts the overall output, and Blend sweeps between wet and dry signals for parallel compression. This blend control is particularly valuable for bass, allowing you to maintain your natural attack while still getting the benefits of compression. This helps control dynamics without losing punch.

The LED gain reduction meter provides visual feedback on how much compression is happening, which is incredibly helpful when dialing in your sound. This is particularly useful in loud stage environments where it can be difficult to hear subtle differences in compression settings.

The VCA topology is known for its transparency and fast response, making it ideal for bass applications where you want to control dynamics without coloring your tone. The Trickfish VCA delivers this classic compression character while keeping the controls simple and intuitive.

Built in a steel chassis measuring 5.08" x 2.72" x 2.29", the pedal weighs just under a pound and features removable adhesive-backed rubber feet. It runs on standard 9V DC center-negative power, drawing only 35.8mA, and top mounted jacks that make it pedalboard-friendly. The true bypass footswitch ensures your signal remains pristine when the compressor is disengaged.

Whether you're looking for subtle dynamic control or more aggressive compression for a punchy sound, the Trickfish VCA Compressor delivers it all in an easy-to-use package.

From Trickfish

The VCA Compressor pedal was born out of Trickfish's desire to offer a compressor pedal that threads the needle between the transparent and accurate studio compression they love, and the tonal enhancement (aka magic sauce) that we all love in certain vintage compressors or beloved compressor pedals on the market.

Trickfish's goal was to create a highly flexible, super accurate, and, most importantly, fantastic-sounding compressor pedal. They settled on a VCA (voltage-controlled amplifier) design with a smart and simple set of controls over the crucial compression parameters.

3 year anniversary is leather
Color: Brown +Wireless
I bought this for our third year wedding anniversary, as a gift for my husband. The 3rd year is supposed to be a gift inspired by leather. The tray is very durable and has lots of compartments. My husband uses it on his nightstand to keep things that he has in his pocket when he empties them the end of the night. The wireless charger is very convenient, although he prefers to actually plug in his phone rather than wirelessly charge it. The charger cable itself is surprisingly of great quality. The leather isn’t too bad either. Good gift for the price point.

I’m really impressed with these 12-inch Heavy Duty Floating Shelf Brackets!
Size: 12 Inch, Style: Black 6Pack
I recently installed them in my living room to hold some books and decorative items, and they’ve been fantastic. The brackets feel extremely solid and well-made — the 1/5-inch thick iron gives them a sturdy, industrial look and they hold the shelves without any wobbling or sagging. I also love the sleek black finish; it looks modern and stylish, and it really complements my décor. Installation was straightforward and stress-free because the set comes with screws, anchors, and a lever — everything I needed to get the shelves up securely. The pack of six brackets is great because it gave me enough for multiple shelves and even an extra in case I need it. The only minor thing to note is that aligning the brackets perfectly requires a bit of patience, but once leveled, they hold like a dream. Overall, these brackets are a great combination of strength, style, and value. They’ve made my shelves look clean and professional, and I feel confident they’ll last for years. Highly recommend for anyone looking for heavy-duty, attractive shelf support!
