The passive Mission Engineering VM-1 Aero Flat Black volume pedal not only impresses with its elegant design, which allows easy operation of the pedal while standing and sitting, but also with its special "No Tone Suck" circuit, which effectively prevents sound losses when adjusting the volume. Two different operating modes are available, which can be displayed when a battery or a power supply unit is connected by changing the colour of the underbody lighting. In "Active-Mode" the Mission VM-1 Aero works as a classic volume pedal, while in "Tuner Mode" the tuner output is additionally activated, enabling tuning of the instrument with reduced or completely reduced volume.
