Old Blood Noise Endeavors Expression Ramper HK
Parameter Mover with Tap Tempo

Following the success of the Expression Ramper X3 released in early 2024, OBNE are yet again expanding on the concept of Expression Ramping and present to you the Expression Ramper HK, an enhanced version of the expression movement shaper capable of manipulating expression-controlled devices with even more copious control and options.

With the Expression Ramper HK, Old Blood Noise Endeavors not only clads their top-selling utility device into a new graphical design originated by OKC art duo Holey Kids that makes it perfectly fit in with the rest of OBNE’s latest utility series releases. Additionally, the familiar Expression ramper gets a Tap Tempo switch that can be used to tap in the desired LFO speed, overriding the knob setting for Rate.

A super simple, yet highly innovative way to automate expression control, letting you conjure sounds you never thought possible from any pedal with an expression input. It’s time to release your Inner-Ramper!

Main Features:
• Expression Control Pedal, with storable settings and tap tempo
• Footswitch activated motion, create modulated effects on the fly
• Ramp between the two user-defined expression control settings (A and B)
• 6 waveforms for movement between settings (alternative wave shapes accessibly by pressing the TAP button while changing the shape toggle)
o Triangle - linear motion between A and B starting and ending at a and B at halfway on the LFO cycle
o Square - snaps between A and B spending half of the LFO cycle in each position
o 1 Shot - moves linearly from A to be or B to A, depending on the starting point
o Smooth Random – repeatedly moves to a random spot between A and B in linear fashion
o Sharp Random - immediately moves to a new random spot between A and B at the start of each cycle
o 1 Shot Random - moves linearly from either A to B or B to A and then stops
• Rate control or Tap Tempo button - for quickly and accurately inputting the desired movement speed
• 50K digital potentiometer compatible with the most expression-control-capable pedals on the market
• User-configurable EXP output (TRS, TRS reverse polarity or TS)
• LED indicates which setting is currently active
• Powered by regular 9 V DC PSU (centre -, 2.1 mm, ~50 mA current draw)

A ramper is a device that creates motion on your expression-enabled devices. Simply put, the Expression Ramper HK allows you to pick two expression settings (point A and point B) and the way it moves between. It can either change settings in one motion or as a continuous LFO activated by a single footswitch.

Just hook up the Expression Ramper HK to your expression-enabled effects pedal, simply pick your first expression setting in the A position, then your second in the B position and you’re good to go. It’s utilitarian, but opens up a number of sounds from your existing pedals.

Then, set Expression Ramper HK to move between A and B in one of six different ways. In Triangle mode, it glides in a linear Triangle wave sweep from A to B, while in Square mode it will make instant Square Wave jumps. Both Triangle and Square are LFO modes - you start the LFO when you hit the footswitch once, then stop it as you press the switch again. Alternatively, 1 Shot mode triggers a cool one-off sweep, where every press of the footswitch jumps from one position to the other. The speed of the LFO or 1 Shot movement can be set via the Rate knob or Tap Tempo button.

To access the hidden three alternative shapes the Expression Ramper HK provides, simply hold down the tap button while switching the shape toggle. Now the Triangle shape changes to Smooth Random, which repeatedly moves to a random spot between A & B in a linear fashion, Square becomes Sharp Random, which immediately moves to a new random spot between A & B at the start of each cycle and the 1 Shot setting becomes 1 Shot Random, where each press of the footswitch snaps to a new random spot between A & B.

These simple and intuitive features can unlock worlds of sound. For instance, if you have Expression Ramper HK hooked up to a pitch-shifter, you can create classic Whammy-like octave glides in one-shot mode, stretchy modulation in Triangle wave mode or hypnotic pitch sequences in Square wave mode. Got an expression-enabled phaser? Turn it into a step-filter with Expression Ramper HK’s square wave. Or maybe an expression-enabled delay pedal? Use Expression Ramper to create swelling Feedback waves in Triangle mode or jump between two preset delay times in one-shot mode. The list goes on and on and the possibilities are basically endless.

While it should suit most effects pedals right out the box, Expression Ramper HK can easily be configured for different polarity or types of expression pedal simulation by using the internal jumpers.

All of this goodness is packed into a highly compact enclosure, ensuring that you can fit the Expression Ramper HK (or several Rampers) into any setup. Happy Ramping!

Old Blood Noise Endeavors

Old Blood Noise Endeavors started in a garage, sort of. In reality, it is the return to the garage. After spending some time working for and building up some now established pedal companies, it seemed right, if not prudent, to give it a go in our own way, making the weird, niche based effects that we so often like to hunt down and use in our own musical projects. So here we are, Brady Smith and Seth McCarroll, making pedals, making and listening to music, drinking coffee, thinking about but never pulling the trigger on writing a screenplay, and waiting for the next Mads Mikkelsen movie to come out. With the help of some talented friends and employees we’ve been able to keep this thing rolling.
