The OCD was the first pedal to use Mosfets as clipping devices. Another first was their configuration as "hard clippers connected to v-ref" instead of to ground, as was the norm. These things contribute greatly as to why the OCD has such touch-sensitivity...why they react so well when the strings are hit hard or soft, and why they sound & feel different than all other pedals out there, 90% of which are just slight tweaks of the Tube Screamer.

Winner of “What’s That Dude Play? Pedal Of The Year 2011”!

Classic overdrive paired with a powerful EQ section. Even with the gain dimed, the Rook maintains astonishing note articulation and chord clarity, (think a highly tweakable Tube Scre@mer). If that’s not enough, the Rook is one of the most stack friendly drives on the market. Whether stacked with various overdrives, fuzzes, or muffs, it can make all of your other pedals sound even better!

The magic is the 2 band Baxandall EQ circuit, which offers up a different approach to tone control. Both Bass and Treble can be independently cut or boosted, allowing for an almost limitless tonal palette. With them both down, you get a mid range hump. Turning both controls up yields a nice mid scoop.

Adding to the countless shades of drive is the 3 way toggle. Toggle UP for “classic overdrive” tones, filled with rich “harmonicy” goodness. Toggle DOWN is LED clipping, for a raw and edgy, almost distortion type drive. Lastly, the MIDDLE position removes the clipping diodes for a louder, cleaner, less compressed sound. This position also causes the EQ controls to be more pronounced, allowing the Rook to be used as an excellent tone shaping boost. It’s best to start with the gain down to get a feel for this position, then crank it up for total amp melt-down!

Manche würden sagen, wir sind getrieben. Wenn sich unsere Ingenieure monatelang in unseren Sounddesign-Laboren einschließen, könnte man sagen, wir sind besessen. Wir haben uns der Zusammenstellung einer Sammlung der organischsten, üppigsten, ausdrucksstärksten und vielseitigsten Modulationseffekte verschrieben, die man je gehört hat.

Es war eine enorme Mission – wir haben die Nuancen der legendären Modulationen berühmter Tremolo-Effekte, Phaser-Pedale, Chorus-Einheiten und mehr aus den letzten fünf Jahrzehnten sorgfältig studiert. Wir haben uns nicht damit begnügt, diese warmen und üppigen Vintage-Sounds originalgetreu einzufangen – wir haben ihr Vokabular um erweiterte Vielseitigkeit und Klangmöglichkeiten erweitert, die man noch nie zuvor gehört hat.

ome might say we’re driven. When our engineers lock themselves in our sound design labs for months on end, you might say we’re obsessed. We have been dedicating ourselves to forging a collection of the most organic, luscious, expressive, and versatile modulation effects ever heard.

It was an enormous mission—we painstakingly studied the nuances of the legendary modulations of celebrated tremolo effects, phaser pedals, chorus units, and more from the last five decades. We didn’t stop at faithfully capturing these warm and lush vintage sounds—we expanded their vocabulary with extended versatility and sonic possibilities never before heard.

Das weiße Gehäuse des Spark Booster besteht vollständig aus Metall und die Beschriftung in Gold verleiht dem Pedal ein durchaus edles Erscheinungsbild. Die Verarbeitung ist vorbildlich, genau wie bei allen anderen Pedalen, die wir bereits getestet haben. Auch dieses Gerät ist absolut roadtauglich, aber das war nicht anders zu erwarten, denn rund um den Globus findet man unzählige Pedale von TC, die sich seit Jahrzehnten klaglos im Dauereinsatz befinden.

Kick your playing into high gear with Spark Booster, a pedal rocking a completely clean boost and heaps of extra features for a world of tone. With a full 26 dB of boost, Spark Booster delivers the juice you need for highlighting solos and nailing that killer lick or riff.

The LEHLE DUAL SGOS is the second evolutionary stage of the highly successful programmable switcher for two amps plus tuner. This unit makes it possible to play through two amplifiers individually or simultaneously, either as a stand-alone unit or in a network with other Lehle SGoS switchers. A particularly popular combination is the LEHLE DUAL SGOS with the LEHLE D.LOOP SGOS. Programming is as easy and intuitive as you would expect from a Lehle product, and can also be done remotely, using MIDI program change commands. Hum loops are completely excluded, thanks to electrical isolation of outputs A and B by the LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ high-end transformer. Gold-plated-contact relays, ground switches and phase inverters assure the full, loss-free guitar sound. The potentiometers are in the signal path when output A and B are active simultaneously, and the volume of the two amps can be balanced - producing a third sound you've never heard before! Output T, basically intended for instrument tuners, can also be used for a third amp or for a second channel for amp B, opening up even more potentials. The gold-plated-contact relays feature active pop-and-click suppression, outputs A and B can be muted for undisturbed instrument tuning. Welcome to the new Duality!

Basierend auf dem gleichen Konzept und den Möglichkeiten des Flaggschiffs BOSS ES-8, ist der BOSS ES-5 eine minimal abgespeckte Version, die im deutlich kleineren Gehäuse daher kommt und somit ohne Mühe auch auf kleinere Pedalboards passt. Alle wesentlichen Bedürfnisse von Gitarristen und Bassisten werden auch hier bedient. Die kreativen Möglichkeiten für Pedalboard-Systeme, die der ES-8 ermöglicht, sind jetzt auch für kleinere Anwendungen erschwinglich. Erweitere dein Pedalboard mit dem kleinen ES-5 und du spielst in einer völlig neuen Liga. Von jetzt an wirst Du deine Effektpedale völlig anders einsetzen.

Based on the same concept and features as the flagship ES-8, the ES-5 is pared down to offer more practical and essential use options for typical guitarists and bassists, and is drastically reduced in size to fit ready-made, standard-size boards. The innovation in creativity of pedalboard systems made possible by the ES-8 has become more available and affordable. Expand your board just by one size and incorporate the ES-5, then you are in for a whole new world of musical expression, not just another utility tool. From this day on, the use of stompboxes will never be the same.

Das Boss DD-500, ein High End Delay des japanischen Effektgeräte-Herstellers, kann mit 12 Delay-Programmen, 32 Bit/96 kHz Signalverarbeitung, bis zu 297 Speicherplätzen und einem Looper aufwarten und ist mit dieser Ausstattung naturgemäß in einer etwas höheren Preisklasse angesiedelt. Allein diese Eckdaten sind einigermaßen imposant, aber die Marke Boss und der Mutterkonzern Roland haben bereits in der Vergangenheit – zum Beispiel mit dem DD-20, dem Space Echo oder dem Tera Echo – bewiesen, dass man durchaus auch in unterschiedlichen Preiskategorien in der Lage ist, uns Gitarristen mit amtlichen Delay-Sounds zu versorgen.

The Boss DD-500 is one of the few Boss pedals which are, because of their size, less pedalboard friendly. Therefor, it offers up to 10 seconds maximum delay time, tap tempo and tape emulation.
Other features of the stereo pedal that allows to choose a true bypass or a buffered processing, are modulation, expression pedal and midi input.
Furthermore, you can lead different delays (modulation models) on several channels and run the pedal serial as well as parallel.
All things considered, the 9V pedal with integrated looper provides an extremely extensive menu including tone shaping options.
Nevertheless, the Boss DD-500 which is still produced today is not really legendary and its sound is quite sterile. This is why this digital delay is a 3 of 10 on my cult factor scale.

Die magische Kombination aus Tremolo und Reverb ist das früheste Beispiel für eine perfekte Verbindung von Gitarreneffekten. Erstmals in legendären Verstärkern der 1960er Jahre eingesetzt, hat dieses harmonische Zusammenspiel unzählige Aufnahmen und Live-Performances geprägt – von frühem Surfrock, swampigem Bayou-Blues, Spaghetti-Western und Film-noir-Soundtracks bis hin zu modernem Indie-Rock. Auch heute entdecken Gitarrist:innen die inspirierende Kraft dieses Traumpaars immer wieder neu.

Flint ist ein Studio-Qualitäts-Effektpedal, das genau diese klassische Kombination liefert. Wir haben unsere Lieblings-Tremolo- und Reverb-Schaltungen aus der Vergangenheit intensiv analysiert, ihre klanglichen Feinheiten untersucht und sie in unseren aufwendig entwickelten Algorithmen detailgetreu nachgebildet. Flint ist im Grunde zwei Pedale in einem – Tremolo auf der einen, Reverb auf der anderen Seite.

The magical combination of tremolo and reverb is the earliest example of a perfect guitar effects marriage. First pioneered within historic amplifiers of the 1960s, this harmonious coexistence has made its way onto countless records and performances — from early surf, swampy bayou blues, spaghetti westerns and film noir soundtracks, to modern day indie rock. As music moves forward, guitarists continue rediscovering the inspiration provided by this perfect pair.

Flint is a studio-class effects pedal that delivers this classic combination. We carefully studied our favorite classic tremolo and reverb circuits, examined the sonic complexities and faithfully accounted for every detail in our hand-crafted algorithms. Flint is essentially two pedals in one, with tremolo on one half and reverb on the other.

Als wir uns entschieden, ein Stereo-Delay-Effektpedal in Studioqualität zu entwickeln, wussten wir, dass wir weit über das bisher Erreichte hinausgehen mussten – in Sachen Klangqualität, klanglicher Flexibilität, Hardware-Design und Verarbeitungsleistung. Wir verbrachten Monate in den Sounddesign-Laboren von Strymon und träumten von den geräumigsten, üppigsten, kreativsten und anpassbarsten Delay-Effekten, die man je gehört hat. Es war eine monumentale Aufgabe – ein unermüdliches Studium von Delays und ihren Nuancen und ein kontinuierliches Streben nach innovativen und musikalisch inspirierenden Klängen. Durch die Verwendung eines unglaublich leistungsstarken SHARC DSP wird jedes bisschen Verarbeitungsleistung genutzt.

TimeLine bietet Ihnen zwölf einzigartige Delay-Maschinen, jede mit umfassender Kontrolle über Klangcharakter und -gefühl. Gehen Sie von knackigen und klaren digitalen Delays in Studioqualität bis hin zu den gesättigten und schwankenden Klängen von Band-Delay-Maschinen. Erhalten Sie warme und unscharfe Wiederholungen im analogen Stil bis hin zu schimmernden, funkelnden und kristallinen Eis-Delays.

Optimieren Sie nach Herzenslust und speichern Sie bis zu 200 Voreinstellungen Ihrer Lieblingssounds. Krönen Sie das Ganze mit einer vollständigen MIDI-Implementierung und einem routingfähigen 30-Sekunden-Stereo-Looper und schon sind Sie auf dem Weg zum Delay-Glück.

When we decided to create a studio-class stereo delay effects pedal, we knew we must go well beyond what has been done in the past—in sound quality, sonic flexibility, hardware design, and processing power. We spent months locked up in the Strymon sound design labs dreaming up the most spacious, lush, creative, and tweakable delay effects ever heard. It was a monumental task—a relentless study of delays and their nuances, and a continuous pursuit of innovative and musically inspirational sounds. Utilizing a ridiculously powerful SHARC DSP, every drop of processing power is harnessed.

TimeLine provides you with twelve unique delay machines, each with extensive control over sonic character and feel. Go from crisp and clear, studio-quality digital delays all the way to the saturated and fluctuating sounds of tape delay machines. Get warm and fuzzy analog style repeats all the way to shimmery, sparkling, and crystalline ice delays.

Tweak to your hearts content and save up to 200 presets of your favorite sounds. Top it all off with full MIDI implementation and a routable, 30-second stereo looper and you’re on your way to delay bliss.

Plug into BigSky and instantly lift your sound into the stratosphere. The world below you fades into the distance, and you’re elevated into a glow of lush, glorious, radiant reverbs.

To create a reverb experience as natural, beautiful, and immersive as BigSky required tremendous feats of sound engineering and artistic imagination. Using the fundamentals of acoustical science as our beacon, we carefully studied and scientifically analyzed reverb technology from the past fifty years. We faithfully captured the essence of these classic sounds, and forged ahead to dream up our vision of reverbs from the future.
