Die nächsten Folgen dieser Kolumne basieren auf einer Frage von G&B-Leser Ralph Müller-Domke. Ralph berichtet, dass er seinen MXR Dyna Comp zwar sehr schätzt, aber die Nebengeräusche v. a. im Vergleich zum Dyna-Comp-Bausatz von uk-electronic sehr störend findet.

The Dyna Comp Compressor is one of the most popular compressors of all time. Whether you want to tighten up your signal, add rich sustain, or create the percussive and clicky sound heard on numerous hit records, this pedal is straightforward and easy to use. For these reasons, the Dyna Comp Compressor has been the secret weapon on countless pedalboards for years.

The NuX Analog Chorus pedal from the Reissue Series brings back the legendary chorus sound from the 80's, when most guitar tracks had Chorus effect. Thanks to its pure analog Bucket-Brigade circuit, this pedal offers you authentic Chorus effects from warm subtle shimmer to near-vibrato wobbles.

Analog Chorus

fauzi arifin

In the past couple of years, Chinese pedal maker NUX has been releasing some not too subtle (and incredibly affordable) clones of several best-selling classic stompboxes under the rather misleadingly named “Reissue Series” (uhm, reissues of pedals… made by other builders?). Nothing wrong with cloning (almost everyone does it) we are just a little perplexed by the use of the “reissue” word.

Even just the color of their Analog Delay betrays the influence of classic Ibanez / Maxon three-knob Bucket Brigade Device delays from the ’80s. That’s exactly what you get with this pedal: the warm repeats of the 3205 and 3102 BBD chips, for just under $60!

You can judge from the videos below if the Nux Analog Delay sounds as good as the units that inspired it. We added this pedal to our list of the Best Analog Delay Pedals.

Main GIG Board. Classic Rock, Blues Rock, Hard Rock. PXL8 is useful to combine boots/overdrives, and change delay from slapback to long gilmourish delay with mag echo. Some pedals are my own build, like scarab fuzz, deep blue delay, and king of tone clone modified with 2 separate in/out for each channel. The Room 40 is quite redundant but i like it for ac dc tone.

Ein hochwertiges, satt klingendes Chorus-Pedal! Demonfx MINI CHORUS basierend auf dem Analogman Mini Chorus. Das Mini Chorus-Pedal ist ein wunderbar warmer, schimmernder Chorus mit einer deutlichen Klangcharakteristik. Es bietet Regler für Speed und Depth bei allen Modellen, mit einem optionalen Mix-Regler und einem Depth-Toggle-Schalter. S-Speed steuert die Geschwindigkeit des Chorus. D-Depth steuert die Breite des Chorus, von recht flach und dezent bis hin zu super tiefem, verrücktem Pitch-Wahnsinn. Mix (Blend) steuert das Verhältnis zwischen trockenem Signal und Chorus-Signal. Mix hat eine Rastung bei zwölf Uhr, da dies eine 50/50-Mischung ist, aber wie andere erwähnt haben, ermöglicht es das Spielen mit dem Mix-Regler, einen sehr subtilen Chorus zu erzeugen, indem man ihn von zwölf Uhr zurückdreht. Wenn man den Mix-Regler voll aufdreht, kann man sogar einen richtig schönen Vibrato-Effekt erzielen. Zusätzlich kann man mit einem Kippschalter zwischen normalem und tiefem Modus umschalten, um einen tieferen Chorus-Sound zu erhalten. Depth-Option: Depth-Toggle-Schalter-Optionen – 3-Positionen-Kippschalter: satter Sound, dünner Sound und normal. Effektpedal für Gitarre Chorus True Bypass Regler für Speed, Depth, Mix (Blend), Depth-Toggle-Schalter. Design aus Japan. Betrieben mit DC 9V, Negative Center (nicht enthalten).

A high-class, rich-sounding chorus pedal!
Demonfx MINI CHORUS Based on Analogman Mini Chorus.
Mini Chorus pedal is a fabulously warm, shimmery chorus with a distinct voice.
It offers controls for Speed and Depth on all models, with an optional Mix knob and Depth toggle switch.
S-speed  controls the rate if the chorus.
D-depth" controls the width of the chorus, from pretty shallow and subtle to super deep, weird and wacky pitch craziness.
Mix(blend)" controls the wet/dry blend between your dry signal and the chorused signal;
Mix" has a detente at noon because that's a 50/50 blend, but as others have mentioned, playing with the mix knob allows you to mix in a very subtle chorus by backing it down from noon. I've found that by maxing out the "mix" control you can even achieve a really neat vibrato effect.

In addition, you can switch between normal and deep with a toggle switch, enabling a deeper chorus sound.

Das Relay G30 Funksystem für elektrische Instrumente ist zwar kompakt und federleicht, befindet sich aber trotzdem in einem robusten Gehäuse aus Polykarbonat. Das erstaunlich anwenderfreundliche Relay G30 versteht sich vor allem als zuverlässiger Partner – ganz gleich, ob man es auf den Amp stellt oder ins Pedalboard integriert.

The Relay G30 instrument wireless system is compact and lightweight, while at the same time its rugged polycarbonate shell makes it dependably roadworthy. Refreshingly easy to use, the Relay G30 offers reliable performance whether the receiver is placed on your amp top or mounted to your pedalboard.

POLYTUNE 3 NOIR is destined to become the favorite mini pedal tuner for those going for a darker, more monochromatic manner of expression. Sometimes you want to keep things understated, classical.

Das Keeley Magnetic Echo simuliert Röhren Tape Echo Sounds mit Hilfe von Delay Schaltkreisen und ein in bisschen Modulation…
Tape Echos sind aus alter Zeit bekannt für warme, sehr gitarrenfreundliche Delay Sounds. Das Mag-Echo bringt dir ähnliche Resultate mit einem Hauch von Lo-Fi Delay und leicht gefilterte Echo-Ansprache. Hier kommt die Modulation ins Spiel, oder wie Keeley es nennen “Wow and Flutter“. In der Welt der Tape Delays ist dies ein leichtes zitterndes Pitch-Shifting, das entsteht wenn man das Band über den Abspielkopf zieht. 
Kreiere einzigartige Vintage Sounds – mit dem Keeley Mag Echo!

Keeley Magnetic Echo – The Mag-Echo pedal simulates tube tape echo sounds by using the delay circuit and a little bit of modulation.  Tape echos have long been regarded as a warm and very guitar friendly form of delay.  The Mag-Echo achieves similar results by using a touch of Lo-Fi delay, a slightly filtered echo response to keep things warm, and some modulation.  Modulation, or “Wow and Flutter” in the tape world is a slight pitch shift or wavering that occurs as the tape is pulled across the heads.  The modulation we use is similar to what we use in our Seafoam Chorus, a slight wavering of pitch on the trails of the repeats.  With a simple set of controls for the delay – Time, Regen, and Level and with the “Wow and Flutter” controls – Depth and Rate you can create some very vintage or rather unique tones.

Analog Man hat in Zusammenarbeit mit Jim Weider das Pedal herausgebracht, nach dem seit vielen Jahren gesucht wurde - den King Of Tone (KoT). Es gibt viele Overdrive-Pedale auf dem Markt, aber keines von ihnen hat den Ton der Gitarre bewahrt und die richtige Menge an Overdrive ohne Kompromisse hinzugefügt. Es gibt einige gute Clean-Boosts, aber sie haben einfach nicht genug Drive, um dem Verstärker wirklich die Verzerrung zu geben, die man sich oft wünscht. Es gibt einige neuere OD-Pedale, die einen großartigen Frequenzgang haben, aber für mich klingen sie zu TROCKEN, ein bisschen steril und pappig. Es gibt auch einige gut klingende Pedale, aber ihr Sound ist zu "gesättigt", so dass der Anschlag und das Gefühl der Gitarre verloren gehen. Hier kommt das King Of Tone-Pedal ins Spiel - es hat genug warmen Overdrive, bewahrt aber trotzdem den Klang Ihrer Qualitätsgitarren und -verstärker.

Analog Man, in collaboration with Jim Weider, have come out with the pedal we have been looking for for many years - the King Of Tone (KoT). There are many overdrive pedals on the market, but none of them have been quite right, preserving the tone of the guitar and adding the right amount of overdrive without compromise. There are some good clean boosts available, but they just don't have enough drive to really give your amp the distortion you often want. There are some newer OD pedals that have a great frequency response, but to me they sound too DRY, a bit sterile and cardboardy. There are also some nice sounding pedals available but their sound is too "saturated", losing the touch and feel of your guitar. That is where the King Of Tone pedal comes in - it has enough warm overdrive but still preserves the tones of your quality guitars and amps. If you are looking for a big change in your sound, or a lot of distortion, this is probably not the pedal for you.

Housed in a beautiful powder coated Blue 16ga. steel enclosure, the dual-channel Full-Drive 2 Mosfet gives you the best of both worlds. The first channel is the Overdrive Mode, capable of clean boost or non-compressed overdrive or choose light to medium softer overdrives all while retaining your guitar's original tone. The Tone knob is a very effective presence control that can smooth out or add upper harmonics. The second channel is the "Boost Mode" with its own separate distortion control for medium to higher gains with a more singing violin-like sustain!

One mini-toggle lets you choose between a "Vintage" FD2 sound with mid-heavy tones that cut through the mix and "FM (flat-mids)" for a more natural, transparent sound that works awesome with a Strat's neck pickup.
The other mini-toggle lets you choose between Mosfet and Normal clipping modes. Normal mode is even more asymmetrical, sweeter and more open, with no "blanket" over the sound.

TC ELECTRONIC ist ein Synonym für einige der bestklingenden Reverbs auf dem Markt - denken Sie an einen Song mit Hall, den Sie in den letzten 20 Jahren gehört haben, und die Wahrscheinlichkeit ist groß, dass er von uns stammt. Wir sprechen hier von Michael Jackson über Dire Straits bis hin zu Lady Gaga und zurück und allem, was dazwischen liegt. Wir haben die ikonischen Hallsounds, die du kennst und liebst, in einem kleinen Paket zusammengefasst, das einfach so wahnsinnig gut klingt, dass du es ausprobieren musst.

The original HALL OF FAME REVERB delivered some of the most-iconic reverb sounds of all time, but HALL OF FAME 2 REVERB extends that legacy of innovation dramatically. Essentially, HALL OF FAME 2 REVERB’s incredible MASH technology adds an expression pedal to a world-class reverb stompbox that not only responds to your touch and saves precious pedalboard space – but blends the celestial world of reverb with the ultimate in personal expression. Add a scintillating new Shimmer effect, and you've got a reverb pedal unlike any other – the awe-inspiring HALL OF FAME 2 REVERB!

The HALL OF FAME 2 REVERB features groundbreaking new technology that brings a wide range of creative expression to the party, controlled solely by how much pressure you apply to the depressed footswitch. Years in the making, and only available in select
TC ELECTRONIC products, this clever innovation elevates the common footswitch well above rather mundane duties, such as “On” and “Off”. More importantly – MASH elevates your performance to the next level.
