Die Cioks DC7 Mehrfach-Stromversorgung für Effektpedale stellt im Vergleich zu anderen Geräten dieser Art jeder Menge Energie bereit. Und das in einem flachen Gehäuse, das sogar unter ein Pedaltrain Nano Board passt. Das stattliche Kraftwerk bietet laut Angaben des dänischen Herstellers bei 9 Volt massive 4620 mA Strom und wäre damit rein rechnerisch in der Lage, ca. 577 Tubescreamer-Pedale (!) in Betrieb zu halten.

If you use effects pedals, whether on stage or in the studio, running them from a high-quality power supply is essential to getting the best performance and lowest noise out of them. The best power supplies have regulated, electrically isolated outputs, and that gives the same electrical separation as when running the pedals from batteries — but without the obvious disadvantages! There are several excellent power supplies available that offer such features, but CIOKS have managed to come up with an incredibly compact solution, seemingly without compromising on quality or flexibility.

More is More. It sounds big, warm, and punchy. It doesn’t have tone controls because it doesn’t need them, the single knob controls the overall output volume. It wasn’t designed to replace anything else, just to give you More. It’s hard to really describe the sound, because it wasn’t designed to have an overwhelming sound, but moreso to compliment the sound you already have. It wasn’t designed to be a great rig by itself, but it was designed to take your great rig and make it More.

Introducing the Red Sea, an all analog signal routing matrix designed for countless stereo and mono signal path routing options.

The Red Sea gives you the ability to run a FULL Stereo wet dry wet rig using only 2 amps or just 2 signals to the FOH, while also giving you complete control over your Wet & Dry mix!

The Red Sea also has two independent stereo FX loops. Use each FX loop to run stereo delay's and reverb's in parallel, where each effect does not interact with each other. Huge soundscapes can be achieved with washy reverbs and articulate delay repeats while being able to blend between each FX loops mix level.

The greatest pieces of studio gear studio gear are the ones that add something special to the sound of an instrument, going beyond the job they were designed for and enhancing anything that passes through the circuit. One such piece is the UA 610 preamp, which was the inspiration for the DCX Bass. This retro console preamp is famous for adding vintage, analogue colour to a signal, as well as precise control of level and EQ. Push the level harder and you get rich, harmonic saturation of the kind that makes analogue hardware a must-have in any present-day studio.

The DCX Bass reimagines this classic preamp as a tone-shaper and drive pedal for bass guitar, with a wide range of clean and overdrive tones, EQ frequencies optimised for the instrument, and our Adaptive Circuitry providing a treble response that reacts to playing dynamics. It’s a signal-boosting, tone-enhancing pedal straight from the studio!

Der Resonant Filter Equalizer bietet eine einzigartige Klangregelung durch die Kombination eines Hochpassfilters, eines Tiefpassfilters und eines mittleren Equalizers. Beide Filter verfügen über einen eigenen Resonanzregler, der eine Anhebung der Cutoff-Frequenz ermöglicht und die Wirkung der Filter betont. Der semiparametrische Mitten-EQ verfügt über einen variablen Frequenzregler.

The Resonant Filter Equalizer creates unique tone control by combining a high pass filter, low pass filter, and middle equalizer. Both filters have their own resonance control, allowing a bump at the cutoff frequency, accentuating the effect of the filters. The semi-parametric middle eq includes a variable frequency control.

When we released our original Compressor back in 2011, it quickly became a favourite among guitar and bass players alike who were searching for something more than the typical oversimplified controls found on most compressor pedals. Although our original Compressor sounded great on bass (and still does!) we set out to do even better. 
On top of the full range of features and controls normally only seen in high end studio equipment, such as input and gain reduction metering, independent attack and release controls, a mix knob for parallel compression, and an external sidechain insert, we’ve now added a fully variable sidechain high pass filter, and a two position ‘tone + colour’ circuit which adds gentle tone sculpting and harmonic distortion, giving your bass some delicious character.

The Silver Deluxe is a JFET boost with a Fender tone stack EQ. The JFET topology adds some character to your signal, while the passive EQ delivers the familiar response found on many classic tube amps.

The EQ is an exact recreation of the Fender tone stack with Mids. It is also the same as the Alembic F2B.

The Silver Deluxe is designed to produce mild JFET overdrive when pushed. This is achievable with instrument level signals, and powering the pedal with a 9V supply. For a clean output, it is recommended to use a higher supply voltage.

The Fliptop is a JFET preamplifier that is modeled after the B15 amplifier. The gain staging and EQ sections were carefully designed to give the feel and response of the vintage tube amp, offering a good range of pillowy tone that can be driven to the point of light overdrive if pushed.

 In addition to the James stack EQ and gain staging, the Fliptop adds a Master volume control on the output so you can dial in the amount of drive you want while adjusting the volume as needed.

 The Cab knob is essentially a wet/dry control, allowing you to apply 0 to 100% of the cab tone to the preamplifier output. Dialing in more of the cab response tightens the low end and cuts the high frequencies for a warm, vintage tone. The frequency response is modelled after the 15" cab.
