Darkglass Anagram Press puts expression control at your feet

Words by Mixdown

The compact expression pedal is designed for bass players seeking precise, reliable control over their effects, with seamless integration into modern pedalboards.

Expression pedals are one of those pieces of gear you don’t think about until you need one—and then you really need one. Darkglass has just released the Anagram Press, a compact expression pedal built specifically for bass players who value reliability, simplicity, and precise control over their effects.

Catch up on all the latest news here.

Available to order now with an ETA of March, the Anagram Press is engineered for seamless integration with modern pedalboards. It delivers smooth, linear response for controlling expression-enabled devices, whether you’re shaping dynamics, sweeping filters, or morphing parameters in real time.

The pedal’s design is optimised for use with Darkglass’s Anagram Multi effect, though it’ll work with any expression-compatible gear.

One standout feature is the LED array that displays the pedal’s position, giving you instant visual feedback without breaking your focus mid-performance. The smooth, linear pedal response means you’re not fighting unpredictable curves or dead zones—just intuitive, consistent control exactly where you need it.

Darkglass has kept the design compact and pedalboard-friendly, so it won’t take up too much space on your board. There’s also an integrated battery compartment, meaning you won’t need to hunt for power adapters when you need to get set up quickly.

Bass players have long had to make do with expression pedals designed for guitarists or keyboard players, often with inconsistent response curves or footprints that don’t play nicely with bass-centric boards. The Anagram Press addresses that gap directly, offering a tool built with bassists in mind from the ground up.
