Sidekick Jr XT

For this new incarnation of Splash reverb we took all the algorithms of the multi-awarded mk3 version, the plate and shimmer algorithm from Sidekick and added 3 more exciting reverb algorithms, two modulated and one flanged freeze reverb algorithm. 

On top of that we added the extra flexibility of controlling decay and excite controls on all algorithms via an external expression pedal and / or the on-board footswitch thus creating the ultimate ambient tones.

The dry signal is still 100% all analog and we chose to do all the mixing and filtering of the wet signal also in the analog domain to get the best of both worlds.

HI POWER is our next endeavour in pedal + amp-in-a-box overdrives inspired by the sonic combination of two British tone machines that helped shape the sound of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here Album.

Hi Power

Like a missile seeking its target, Heatseeker will give you the explosive sound of rock!

A classic wireless system meets three iconic tube amps!

From its inception / invention, in the mid-70s, this wireless system has been the secret recipe to major rock star guitar rigs.  The magic ingredient lies to its analog preamp / tone enhancer circuit that expands the dynamic response and harmonics of any signal that goes through it. By producing a modern recreation of this hidden gem, we have ensured enough percussive attack to spice up your tone. Besides boosting the signal, the preamp tightens up lower frequencies and slightly accentuates mid frequencies while the Dynamic Expansion circuit enhances the dynamic response and harmonics of the signal giving punch and attack to ensure that it will cut through the mix.

Heatseeker

The White Whale has always represented an endless pursuit of tone. A pursuit of something that seemed almost impossible to "catch": creating a genuine analog spring reverb paired with authentic amp style tremolo while keeping the enclosure as compact and pedalboard friendly as possible.

The original White Whale and later the White Whale V2 brought us remarkably close to that goal. But as often happens with endless pursuits, reaching one destination simply reveals the next challenge.

Despite its dramatically reduced footprint, White Whale Junior uses the exact same 3 spring reverb assembly found in its larger siblings. 

Just like the vintage tube amplifiers and standalone spring reverb units that inspired it, White Whale Junior drives the springs using a dedicated analog power amplifier rather than feeding them directly from a low level signal path. We also carefully voiced the driver circuit to recreate the subtle saturation characteristics associated with a tube power amp and output transformer, adding depth, warmth and musicality as the springs are pushed harder.

The result is a remarkably immersive spring reverb that feels far bigger than its physical dimensions would suggest.

While many classic amplifiers offered little more than a single reverb control, White Whale Junior provides the flexibility of classic standalone spring reverb units. Dwell controls how hard the springs are driven, covering everything from subtle ambience to expressive surf-inspired drip and splash. Tone shapes the brightness and presence of the reverb, while mix blends the wet on top of the dry signal exactly like the reverb control found on a vintage amplifier. A dedicated volume control lets you perfectly match your bypass level or add a healthy clean boost whenever needed.

The tremolo section follows the same philosophy. After years of studying and playing vintage amplifier tremolo circuits, we found ourselves repeatedly gravitating towards two distinct characteristics: the smooth pulse of optical tremolos and the organic movement of classic tube bias designs. Rather than choosing one over the other, we created a single musical voice inspired by our favourite qualities of both.

Following traditional brownface and blackface amplifier architecture, the spring reverb sits before the tremolo stage, allowing both the dry guitar signal and the reverb decay to pulse together for the spacious, three dimensional movement that has defined vintage amp reverb and tremolo for decades.

Like every genuine spring reverb device, White Whale Junior interacts with the physical world around it. The springs respond to movement, vibration and playing dynamics, becoming part of the instrument itself. The familiar splash, crash and mechanical character that players have loved for generations are all here, ready to become part of the performance.
