Der TC Electronic PolyTune 2 Pedal Tuner ist ein absolutes Must Have für jeden Gitarristen. Mithilfe der polyphonen Tuning-Engine lassen sich alle Saiten der E-Gitarre gleichzeitig und präzise stimmen. Insbesondere Gitarren mit Tremolo-System sind mittels der polyphonen Funktion leichter zu kontrollieren: Das Spannungsverhältnis aller Saiten zueinander wird sichtbar und die Beeinflussung der übrigen Saiten, wenn man eine Saite stimmt. Darüber hinaus stehen ein klassischer Einzelton-Modus mit Nadelanezeige und ein extrem exakter Stroboskop-Modus mit +/- 1 cent Genauigkeit zur Verfügung. Auch Freunde von Drop- und Open-Tunings kommen mit den passenden Einstellungen auf ihre Kosten. Dank der extrem hellen und großen LED-Anzeige ist der TC Polytune 2 auch bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen perfekt ablesbar. Als Extra bietet der TC Electronic Polytune 2 außerdem einen 9V-Ausgang zur Stromversorgung weiterer Effektgeräte auf dem Pedalboard.

The TC Electronic PolyTune 2 pedal tuner is an absolute must-have for every guitarist. With the help of the polyphonic tuning engine, all strings of the electric guitar can be tuned simultaneously and precisely. Guitars with a tremolo system in particular are easier to control using the polyphonic function: The tension ratio of all strings to each other becomes visible and the influence on the other strings when one string is tuned. In addition, a classic single-note mode with needle display and an extremely precise strobe mode with +/- 1 cent accuracy are available. Friends of drop and open tunings will also get their money's worth with the appropriate settings. Thanks to the extremely bright and large LED display, the TC Polytune 2 is perfectly legible even in poor lighting conditions. As an extra, the TC Electronic Polytune 2 also offers a 9V output for powering other effects devices on the pedalboard.

The Blessed Mother V2 births a classic overdrive sound, perfecting that raw, yet velvety tone. The range goes deep and wide thanks to the Immaculator function, which allows you to control the transparency of the drive. Dial in sounds from vintage, Tubescreamer-like grit to a heavenly, transparent boost. The Blessed Mother plays well with others and often enhances other drives in the signal chain. Thanks to a supernatural combination of silicon and germanium diodes, the gain has a warm and sweet character to it, just like you would expect from God's mom. Separate treble and bass controls allow you to really tailor the feel to your liking, but this pedal’s speciality is its powerful midrange that can cut through no matter where on the neck you are playing.

The Blessed Mother V2

Beim Hoof Fuzz hat sich EarthQuaker Devices vom klassischen, „russischen“ Big Muff Pi inspirieren lassen. Das Hoof Germanium/Silizium-Hybrid-Fuzz erzeugt ein natürliches und obertonreiches Sustain. Das Klangspektrum reicht von dreckigem Overdrive bis zu monströsem Fuzz. Der Shift-Regler verändert als „Geheimwaffe“ die Frequenz-Ansprache des Tone-Reglers, ausgehöhlt klingende „Scooped-Mids-Fuzz-Sounds“ sind hiermit ebenfalls möglich. Das Hoof Fuzz ist voll analog aufgebaut, verfügt über einen True Bypass und wird in Handarbeit in Ohio/USA hergestellt. Das Hoof V2 verfügt über einen geräuschlosen, relais-basierten Soft-Touch Fußschalter. Audiosignale haben keinen Durchgang, wenn das Gerät nicht mit Strom versorgt wird.

The Hoof Fuzz is based on character of the classic green Russian muff. The Hoof germanium/silicon hybrid fuzz delivers a smooth, natural and harmonically rich sustain. It is capable of creating everything from dirty and organic overdrive to monstrous fuzz madness. The Shift control is its secret weapon of the Hoof. It changes the frequency response of the tone control, primarily on the treble side, making possible hollow sounding “scooped mids fuzz tones”. The Hoof features all analog operation and True Bypass. Hand built in Ohio, USA. The Hoof V2 uses silent relay-based soft touch switching. Audio will not pass without power.

The origin of the Anasounds Utopia family is as simple as it gets. We wanted a delay with the warmth and musical qualities of a tape echo or a bucket brigade pedal without the loss of treble and the maintenance issues of those classic models. And we also wanted control to face many musical situations.
The Utopia Deluxe is a maxed-out version of the original one with a tap tempo, modulations that are easy to set up and a built-in preamp.

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.

Das im kompakten, robusten und nahezu unzerstörbaren Aluminiumgehäuse untergebrachte Pedal ist perfekt auf passive Audiosignale abgestimmt. Direkt hinter der Eingangsbuchse unterhalb der Wippe wartet ein Micro-Schalter, der die Wahl zwischen zwei voreingestellten Lautstärke-Raten bietet.

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.

Der Name Orange steht für einen eigenen britischen Ampsound und natürlich ein unverwechselbares Design, das aufgrund der auffälligen, fruchtigen Farbe einen hohen Wiedererkennungswert hat. Effektpedale sind sicherlich nicht die Hauptdisziplin, mit der man die Marke in Verbindung bringt, doch das soll sich wohl ändern, denn 2015 hat Orange zum ersten Mal seit den 60er Jahren einen Schritt in den Bodentretermarkt gewagt.

The Amp Detonator from Orange is the ultimate tool for guitarists who want to use a guitar with two different amplifiers and/or effect chains. Two outputs, each with its own buffer amp, allow the guitar signal to be forwarded alternately or simultaneously, without the need for long cable runs. In addition, a specially developed isolating transformer and a switch for phase reversal ensure noiseless operation without loss of sound.

 Inherently simple devices like fuzz circuits are extremely sensitive to the amount of voltage that they receive, thus any change in the voltage from your power supply will cause drastically different tones. Guitarists eventually caught on to this hack and began draining their batteries to try and find the sweet spot for their fuzz pedal. A good idea in theory, but who has time for that? Then, just a few years ago, a certain unnamed guitarist reached out to me for a practical solution for this technique– and the Volture was born.

With every AUTO Series pedal, your performance becomes an integral part of the sound effect!
Your touch, playing dynamics, and note choices shape the tones and textures, responding to your performance and evolving in real-time. Hence, the sound design is intricately woven into your musical expression, guiding you on a journey of continuous discovery and wonder.

Customize the adjustments with the DYNAMICS and PITCH knobs and dedicated mode switches. Adjust the DYNAMICS decay time, introduce glide to PITCH tracking, and tailor the response curves to match your playing style and the desired effect. Each of the primary effect knobs is paired with a corresponding smaller adjustment knob, also known as an attenuverter. This allows you to precisely dial in the variation amount and direction for each effect knob independently. Imagine the dynamic possibilities – a loud strum on a guitar can turn one knob clockwise significantly, while only slightly nudging another knob in the opposite direction. Explore the subtleties, from gentle parameter shifts to sweeping, full-parameter transformations.

Die Effektpedale der COOLTRON-Serie sind ganz klar Tretminen der besonderen Art. Schließlich enthalten sie eine echte 12AU7 Vorverstärkerröhre, die für Biss, Wärme und tonnenweise Fett steht, aber trotzdem kein Batteriefresser ist. Ein Netzteil ist im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes Sonderzubehör: Nett, aber nicht unentbehrlich.
Dein Amp klingt warm und seidig. Soll er auch – selbst wenn du mal richtig in den Rotbereich gehst! Wie ein echter Gentleman respektiert das Big Ben Overdrive deine Spieldynamik. Was aber nicht heißen soll, dass es nicht auch mächtig Dampf machen kann, wenn Schirm, Charme und Melone zeitweilig fehl am Platz sind. Mit dem GAIN-Regler kannst du die ganze Palette zwischen bluesiger Wärme und fetter Übersteuerung erkunden. Mit TONE regelst du die Klangfarbe. Wie die übrigen COOLTRON-Pedale huldigt auch das Big Ben der echten Bypass-Schaltung. Kein Effekt bedeutet dann folglich, dass Input gleich Output.

The effect pedals in the COOLTRON series are clearly pedal mines of a special kind. After all, they contain a genuine 12AU7 preamp tube, which stands for bite, warmth and tons of fat, but is still not a battery guzzler. A power supply unit is an optional extra in the truest sense of the word: nice, but not indispensable.
Your amp sounds warm and silky. And it should - even if you really go into the red zone! Like a true gentleman, the Big Ben Overdrive respects your playing dynamics. But that's not to say that it can't also turn up the heat when your umbrella, charm and bowler hat are temporarily out of place. With the GAIN control, you can explore the whole range between bluesy warmth and fat overdrive. Use TONE to adjust the tone color. Like the other COOLTRON pedals, the Big Ben also pays homage to the true bypass circuit. No effect therefore means that input equals output.
