Boonar™ ist ein Effektpedal, das genau darauf ausgelegt ist, den Sound und das Spielgefühl des legendären Binson Echorec, eines magnetischen Drum-Echos mit mehreren Abgriffen, zu liefern. Es ist alles drin und mehr: von einem dicken, saftigen Röhrenton, herrlichen mehrdimensionalen Echowiederholungen, die mit eindringlichen Hallabklängen verschmolzen sind, einer variablen Verzögerungszeit von bis zu einer vollen Sekunde und einem separaten Umschaltsystem für die Wiedergabeköpfe bis hin zu einem erstaunlichen und unverwechselbaren äußeren Erscheinungsbild, das von einem goldenen Finish und einer grün pulsierenden "Magic-Eye"-Pegelanzeige dominiert wird, alles verpackt in einer unglaublich kompakten Stompbox-Form.

Boonar hat den gleichen analogen Signalweg wie das Original Echorec, aber wir haben hochspannungsbetriebene FETs als Röhrenemulatoren verwendet und die magnetische Speichertrommel durch eine DSP-Einheit ersetzt. Wir haben einen speziellen DSP-Code entwickelt, der alle Eigenschaften des tatsächlichen Binson-Speicher-Systems, das wir virtuelle Magnettrommel genannt haben, originalgetreu nachbildet.

Erleben Sie einen authentischen Binson-Sound und genießen Sie die magischen Echos der Vergangenheit!

Boonar™ is an effects pedal precisely designed to deliver sound and feel of the legendary Binson Echorec, a multi-tap magnetic drum echo unit. Everything is in there and more: from thick, juicy tube tone, glorious multi-dimensional echo repeats melted with haunting reverb decays, variable delay time up to a full second and separate playback heads switching system to an amazing and distinctive external looks dominated by a gold finish and green pulsating "magic-eye" level indicator, all packed in an incredibly compact stompbox form.

Boonar shares the same analog signal path as original Echorec but we used high voltage driven FETs as tube emulators and replaced magnetic memory drum with a DSP unit. We developed a special DSP code that faithfully replicates all the characteristics of the actual Binson memory system that we named a virtual magnetic drum.

Reveal an authentic Binson sound and enjoy in magical echoes of the past!

Boonar MkII

The Diktator MKII pays homage to its predecessor, the original Diktator unit, which we proudly designed a decade ago. We embarked on a complete redesign journey, deconstructing the original design while maintaining its tonal character.

Every aspect of the Diktator MKII was meticulously reimagined. We enhanced the input and output FET buffer stages to increase dynamic responsiveness. The drive sections were transformed into a more flexible tube amp-style overdrive, elevating the original character to new heights.

However, we didn't stop there. We fine-tuned the active tone control for precise adjustments across the frequency spectrum. The post-drive presence control also underwent a complete redesign to ensure compatibility with various guitar amps.

Diktator MKII

Pulse™ is an open cabinet revolving speaker emulator, inspired by Pink Floyd’s legendary rotary speaker Doppola and Gibson’s® Maestro Rover RO-1. 

Revolving speaker cabinet is one of the highest revered musical devices, but recreating it soundwise in the pedal form is quite a challenge. We spent countless hours on R&D, measuring every detail on a real physical model and using advanced math to emulate its complex sound image along with all the physics and mechanics behind it. And it’s all in there - a realistic three-dimensional sound that swirls as the speaker accelerates, exact spatial modulation and the feel of the air moving with every spin.

It is modeled upon classics to become a classic.

Like every diktator, this one is rough too, but it can be soft – it has sweetness, but it also has balls.
Diktator™ is a unique two channel combination of clean, transparent preamp and full, thick overdrive / distortion that operate independently.

It's an extremely versatile drive that takes your tone from light crunch, through rich, fat overdrive, all the way to tight distortion. Two toggle switches are responsible for different tonal and gain shapes, and with two-band Baxandall active tone control, any desired frequency is easily cut or boosted. Another original feature is a Dynamic-O-Meter™ (Diktator’s eyes), which is a visual indicator of the drive’s dynamic response.

Used alone it's an ultra transparent preamp which refines the original tone, making your guitar sound bigger and easily pushes the amplifier into the natural overdrive. Used in conjunction with a detonator channel, it really hits your amp hard and is an excellent booster for lead parts and solos.
