BLOOM V2
MIDI-Controllable Optical Compressor
Designed to give guitarists maximum dynamic tonal control, the BLOOM V2 is a comprehensive dynamic engine that features fully fledged MIDI control over all 6 compression settings.
A three-fold device, the BLOOM V2 manipulates the dynamics of the instrument by way of precisely tuned optical compression, 3-band equalization, boost and sustain circuits which can be activated separately or in tandem with each other, allowing compression control in ways never before possible.
• Compressor pedal
• Optical LA-2A style limiting circuit
• MIDI control over all 6 compression parameters, ON/OFF and Level
• 6 instant access presets
• Flat frequency response paired with 3-band EQ for optimal tone shaping
• Small footprint and top-mounted jacks - for ease of pedalboard mounting
• Powered by 9 V DC PSU
(centre -, 2.1mm, ~ 300 mA current draw)
The BLOOM V2 features an optical limiting circuit that takes its inspiration from compressors designed during the golden age of vacuum tube circuits, known for their transparency and subtlety.
While the pedal can provide a very aggressive response at more extreme compression settings, its real strength lies in its ability to add a gentle sweetening and roundness to the tone, as the optical circuit works to polish off any rough edges in the sound.
Hidden inside the BLOOM V2 is a second auxiliary compressor circuit identical to the main compressor with two internal trimmers for Comp and Volume. It can be used in series ahead of the main compression circuit in making notes sustain, while still remaining clear and clean.
The BLOOM V2 can work as a regular set and forget boost. However, by pressing and holding the footswitch down, the BLOOM circuit can slowly ramp up to the level set by the boost. This programmable ramp-up time, can be used to increase sustain on held notes or to perfectly match the dynamics in a song.
The 3-band EQ circuit features a studio-grade EQ that gives tremendous tonal flexibility. Based on the legendary Baxandall EQ that is featured in countless studio devices, the BLOOM V2 takes this circuit and tailors it for guitarists. Jackson Audio spent a huge amount of time on this EQ dialling it in, so it would hit all the frequencies that guitarists need to adjust and then sweetened it by removing the ear-fatiguing highs and lows that can appear at extreme settings.
Because of its natural touch response, the BLOOM V2 is ideal for players who typically don’t use compression but want the ‘mastered’ response that optical compression gives to a guitarists tone. Add in the MIDI control of the individual circuits Bypass features (Compressor, EQ, BLOOM) and the overall BLOOM level (via MIDI expression control) and the BLOOM V2 is no doubt one of the most versatile compressor pedals ever made.
In early 2016, a conversation took place between Brad Jackson and Nigel Hendroff about how to make a company whose purpose and values were just as important as its products. A company whose purpose informed its products, and whose success would ultimately be defined by the success of our artists.
Almost a year later, Jackson Audio is the result of that conversation.
Jackson Audio was founded by Brad Jackson from Jackson Ampworks, Nigel Hendroff from Hillsong Church in Sydney Australia and Juan Kyle from Jackson Ampworks. These 3 men collectively bring together over 40 years of experience in passionate product design and application.
Having assembled a team with an exhaustive knowledge of product design and application, together we are focusing our individual strengths to create inspiring products that serve to elevate the player to greater heights of musical expression.
We started Jackson Audio for the people who view music not as a job….but as a calling, and we’re aligning our talents to help serve those players who feel a deeper sense of purpose than just being a guitar player. If you know deep down, that your music is more than just a gig; it’s a calling….then we want to serve you and bring our passion into focus to help serve yours.
Our passion serving your passion….our calling supporting your calling. We love musicians and we’re building tools that are worthy of the calling that is placed on their lives.
We are Jackson Audio.
