DESIGNED BY SYNTH PIONEER TOM OBERHEIM

The Maestro FSH-1, also known as the Filter Sample/Hold, was an innovative pedal released in the late 1960s. This pedal produced unpredictable filter sweeps and sample/hold effects, making it ideal for experimental and psychedelic guitarists. Its scarcity and unique sound have made it highly sought-after among collectors and sonic explorers.

The sample/hold settings allow players to add rhythmic patterns to their playing far beyond the typical vibrato and tremolo. The filter is classic low pass and sounds incredibly smooth. Controls allow you to tweak the rate of the sample/hold as well as the frequency of the filter. This is truly a fantastic pedal.

 

The controls

Filter Range: Probably the width of range in which the filter moves. Could also be a fixed width with knob controlling the center frequency (high/low) of that range.

 

Filter/Sample/Hold: Switches the effect to envelope filter or sample/hold.

 

S/H Speed: Controls the speed of the sample/hold effect.

 

The controls consist of knobs for range (depth) and sample/hold speed. A switch that engages either the sample/hold random filter effect or an envelope follower for a unique auto wah sound.

The Maestro Invader Distortion is a high-gain, all-analog modern distortion pedal with a heavy, aggressive, dominant sonic character and loads of rich harmonics. With the Maestro Invader Distortion, users can generate a wide range of distorted sounds. The 3-knob control layout gives users intuitive control over Gain (distortion amount), Tone, and output Level, with more than enough volume on tap to easily exceed unity gain when you want to. Users can also engage a built-in noise gate with the top panel toggle switch. An internal trim pot mounted on the circuit board inside the pedal allows the user to adjust the level of the noise gate's Threshold.

Das Maestro Discoverer Delay ist ein modernes Analog-Delay-Pedal, das die legendäre analoge Bucket-Brigade-Technologie (BBD) nutzt, um klassische, warme und ansprechende Delay-Sounds zu erzeugen. Die intuitive Bedienung mit drei Reglern ermöglicht es dem Benutzer, die Delay-Zeit (von 20 ms bis 600 ms), die Anzahl der Wiederholungen (Sustain) und den Pegel des Delays im Mix schnell einzustellen. Ein Kippschalter aktiviert die integrierte Modulation, die dem verzögerten Signal Effekte von einem leicht gesättigten, bandähnlichen Wow- und Flutter-Effekt bis hin zu einem stark tonhöhenverschobenen Modulationseffekt hinzufügt. Zwei interne Trimmpotis ermöglichen die Einstellung der Rate (Geschwindigkeit) und der Breite (Sweep-Bereich) der Modulation. Der True-Bypass-Fußschalter aktiviert die LED-Leuchten in den Trompeten des Maestro-Logos, sodass Sie immer wissen, wann der Effekt aktiv ist.

The Maestro Discoverer Delay is a modern analog delay pedal that proudly utilizes legendary analog bucket brigade device (BBD) technology to deliver classic, warm, and inviting delay sounds. The intuitive 3-knob control layout lets users quickly dial up the length of the Delay time (with a range from 20 ms to 600 ms), the amount of Sustain (delay repeats), and adjust the level of the delays in the Mix. A toggle switch engages built-in modulation that applies anything from a slightly saturated, tape-like wow and flutter effect to a heavily pitch-shifted modulation effect to the delayed signal. Two internal trim pots allow the user to adjust the Rate (speed) and Width (sweep range) of the modulation. The true bypass footswitch triggers the LED lights in the bugles in the Maestro logo when it’s on, so you’ll always know when the effect is active.

The Maestro Orbit Phaser is a descendent of the very first phaser pedal ever produced - the legendary Maestro PS-1. This classic effect has been re-engineered and tailored to the needs of today’s players. The Maestro Orbit Phaser is designed to optimize all the character and vibe you expect from an all-analog phaser. Warm and smooth, the Maestro Orbit Phaser offers all the versatility needed to dial in the tastiest of phaser effects. Its two-position Mode switch gives you a choice of 4 or 6-stage phasing. The intuitive 3-knob control layout lets you quickly set the desired Width (the intensity of the phaser effect), Feedback (emphasizing the amount of vocal phase effect), and adjust the Rate (speed) of the phasing effect. The true bypass footswitch triggers the LED lights in the bugles in the Maestro logo when it’s on, so you’ll always know when the effect is active.
