MXR knows phasers. The Phase 90's compact size, superior construction, and refined sound put MXR on the map, and it set the standard by which all other phasers are judged. Two years later, MXR released the Phase 45—a mellower version of the effect favored for its ability to easily blend into a band's mix. Now, you can get both iconic circuits in a single pedal while tightening up your pedalboard at the same time. The Phase 95 combines the Phase 45 and Phase 90 circuits in a mini housing with about half the footprint of a standard MXR pedal. The 45/90 switch toggles between the Phase 45 mode's subtle two-stage phasing and the Phase 90 mode's more pronounced four-stage phasing, while the Script switch toggles between two phasing styles. The Phase 95 is set to modern style phasing by default, which relies on feedback to create light harmonic distortion and gives the effect a more accentuated swoosh. Engaging the Script switch removes feedback for a lusher, more subdued sound with higher headroom and greater clarity. The familiar Speed control sets the rate of the effect. The Phase 95 may be small, but it's full of rich phase tones, and it'll take a beating on the road.

Das Keeley Dark Side schickt vollen, dicken Fuzz, direkt in eine Modulationssektion– Uni-Vibe, Rotary Speaker und Multi Head Tape Delay (unter anderem) inklusive. Es liefert eine unglaubliche Vielfalt an klassischen Sounds inspiriert von David Gilmour. Das Dark Side ist aber nicht nur ein “Gilmour Tone Simulator“. Genau wie Robert Keeley’s “Neo Vintage“ Philosophie ist vielmehr ein Take von alle dem, was er an den klassischen Sounds verbessert hätte, hätte es damals die Technologie dazu gegeben. Und das zeigt sich mit Features wie einer kompletten Magnetic Drum Delay Emulation. Das Dark Side hält eine massive Bandbreite an tonalen Möglichkeiten für dich zum Entdecken bereit.

The Keeley Dark Side is a full thick fuzz going into a modulation section which includes Uni-Vibe, Rotary Speaker and Multi Head Tape Delay among others, which is capable of yielding a ton of classic sounds inspired by David Gilmour. The Dark Side is not just a “Gilmour Tone emulator” though, in line with Robert Keeley’s “Neo Vintage” philosophy, it is rather his take on what he believes could have been improved on those classic tones should the technology had been around at the time. And it certainly shows, with features such as full-on magnetic drum delay emulation, the Dark Side offers a massive range tonal possibilities ready for you to discover.

Ventris Dual Reverb

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.

My most popular fuzz pedal, formerly known as the KO Sound Fuzz.  Based on a silicon tone bender mkII with an added tone control.  Built with specially selected BC108 silicon transistors and some circuit tweaks to make it sound just like good old germanium for that vintage tone with reliable performance.

DECIBELICS GOLDEN HORSE PROFESSIONAL OVERDRIVE – MINI KLON CENTAUR ACCURATE CLONE

“It just don’t “simulate” the Klon Centaur tone as other clones do, it sounds and feels as if it was an original unit” – Matt, Klon Collector

“Definitely the best Klone ever made. I’m absolutely impressed” – Bill U., Tone Chaser

Decibelics Golden Horse Professional Overdrive is the result of all my experience studying and building Klon Centaur clones squeezed into a mini enclosure. Handmade from thru-hole and New Old Stock components and same values as the original. No SMD or approximated values – My goal was to give Tone and Mojo in a mini footprint. You are not buying a mass-produced and lifeless pedal here.

The Decibelics Golden Horse is the only klone in the market, that is A/B tested against a real gold Centaur prior to be shipped to you.

The Reverend is my take on one of my all-time favorite pedals: The sought-after, vintage Bixonic Expandora – One of the first ‘Boutique’ pedals, Made in Japan, used among the greatest guitarists the likes of Joe Satriani, Megadeth, Bootsy Collins, Slipknot… And made famous by Billy Gibbons for its ZZ Top signature sound.

The Expandora was a phenomenal Overdrive/Distortion/Fuzz, a highly evolved Rat with an ‘expander’ circuit that made the pedal dynamically sensitive, allowing users to vary the amount of distortion with the pick’s attack or by adjusting their instrument’s volume knob. 

Imagine playing La Grange and being able to go from the clean part to the distortion part just by strumming harder. That’s the magic of this circuit!

Clean began its life as a question: Can clean be as fun as dirty?

Developed slowly and through a variety of experiments, Clean explores the wild side of compression and brings the interactivity of distortion circuits to a clean signal. 

Clean is a studio-grade compressor you can turn on its head and push beyond the expected.

It was built to bring the exploratory energy of distortion to the clean performer, from the touch sensitivity of an overdrive to the unwieldy response of a fuzz. Tasteful, musical nuance, tied to your hands.

Es scheint, dass die meisten Klone, die derzeit anderswo erhältlich sind, auf einem leichter zugänglichen Schaltplan basieren.  Viele Spieler (und anscheinend auch Erbauer) wissen nicht, dass es ein paar Schaltkreisrevisionen gab, während das Originalgerät in Produktion war - eine war weicher und wärmer, eine war zu hell und wirklich hart - was bedeutet, dass es ein Toss-up für Leute ist, die $250+ für das Originalpedal bezahlen, wenn einige besser sind als andere. Dies ist ein Klon der wärmeren und glatteren der beiden Revisionen - diejenige, die geklont werden sollte.  

It seems that most clones available elsewhere at the moment are based on a more readily-available schematic.  A lot of players (and apparently builders as well) don't know that there were a few circuit revisions while the original unit was in production - one was smoother and warmer, one was too bright and really harsh - which means it's a toss-up for people who are paying $250+ for the original pedal when some are better than others. This is a clone of the warmer and smoother of the two revisions - the one that should be cloned.
