Walrus audio Canvas Expression

The Canvas Expression redefines what an expression pedal can offer: two independent, configurable outputs capable of handling expression, switching, and control voltage, all complemented by comprehensive MIDI control.

Overview

The Canvas Expression isn’t just a simple expression pedal. It’s a true control center for manipulating parameters, adaptable to almost any pedalboard, synthesizer, or desktop setup. Whether you want to sweep through delay repeats, switch presets mid-song, control modular synthesizers, or automate plugin parameters in your DAW, the Canvas Expression offers flexible control without compromise.

Independent Outputs for Optimal Flexibility

Each independent output on the Canvas Expression can function as a standard expression output, a programmable switch output, or a control voltage (CV) source. This allows a single pedal to control multiple devices within virtually any setup.

• Compatible with pedals, amplifiers, synthesizers, and modular systems.
• Easily integrates with your gear without requiring any modifications.

Customize to suit your needs

Built-in automatic expression wiring detection eliminates compatibility uncertainties. Additionally, adjustable settings for curves, sweep direction, switching thresholds, and output behavior let you precisely fine-tune the response of your expression signals to pedal movement.

Powerful MIDI control for advanced performances

The Canvas Expression isn’t limited to analog control—it also serves as a powerful MIDI controller capable of sending up to 16 independently assignable MIDI messages via USB-C and TRS MIDI. Using the Canvas Expression web editor, you can assign control to pedals, processors, DAWs, virtual instruments, and plugins, with smooth, high-resolution parameter sweeps or instant preset changes.

Intuitive Setup and Adjustable Pedal Voltage

With customizable pedal tension, built-in setup, and an intuitive web editor for advanced adjustments, the Canvas Expression is designed to become the central control hub for virtually any modern setup.
