Lehle Mono Volume S

With the LEHLE MONO VOLUME S you get an active and wear-free volume pedal that is lighter and smaller, but no less efficient: Equipped with the proven and constantly evolving magnet sensor VCA technology of the other LEHLE VOLUME pedals, you control the volume precisely your instrument. Since it does not have a mechanical potentiometer, there is no more noise, endless and expensive repairs and cumbersome adjustments. Your foot only moves the magnet, while the Hall sensor measures the distance very quickly and precisely. An ARM Cortex CPU processes the sensor data into a suitable, musical curve and controls the VCA. The signal path always remains completely analog and in your hands. Stability – electronically and mechanically. The LEHLE MONO VOLUME S transmits the full sound spectrum of the connected instrument or signal generator over the entire control range. The input and output impedance always remains the same, which means that there is no treble damping as with a passive potentiometer. The input voltage of your connected power pack (9-12 V) is internally rectified behind the power supply socket, filtered, stabilized and then transformed to 30 volt headroom. As a result, it is very stable in level, low in background noise and thus achieves a total dynamic range of 120 dB. The smallest sound nuances are audibly presented by the high-end preamp with a discrete Class A input stage - your tone becomes tangible. There are no starting difficulties with the LEHLE MONO VOLUME S: low-friction plain bearings made of a high-performance polymer gently embed the shaft in the aluminum housing and reduce any mechanical stress to almost zero - it runs extremely quietly and evenly. Using an adjusting screw, you can set the smoothness of the pedal very precisely from feather-light to vintage car. In addition to the output, you have a second direct out that is also buffered: everything from the tuner to the DAW to the second amp can be supplied without negatively affecting the sound. Zero to hundred or Boost à la carte? The LEHLE MONO VOLUME S has a boost that can provide you with up to +12 dB more gain with a little emphasis in the toe position. When and how? You can call up 4 presets via a button: 0 dB, +5 dB or +10 dB. The last preset is the chef's recommendation and remains an audiophile surprise. The LEHLE MONO VOLUME S can be calibrated, programmed and updated via the USB-C socket - it also sends MIDI data to the DAW or amp sim of your choice. Compared to the LEHLE MONO VOLUME, we were able to reduce the weight by 50% and the size by 35% - with the same stability and more dynamics. It is even 2 cm flatter, but the control range remains just as comfortable and long as with the larger models. This is the LEHLE MONO VOLUME S: Louder – but smaller.
